Nova Gradiška knows how to entertain you, bring a smile to your face, and make you feel the most beautiful feelings which will make you come back to our events!

NG Summer

 One of our most significant events during the summer evenings offers a range of cultural and musical events. In mid-August, many visitors enjoy carefully designed five-day themed music evenings (Evening of Classics, Rock Evening, Tamburica Evening, Fun Evening, Evening of Tradition and Folklore). Every year it is visited by more and more visitors and because of that, the event has profiled itself as the event of the year in this part of Slavonia.
