Bihać is at the heart of the New Year’s magic
Tired of familiar New Year’s stories? In December, Bihać offers more than a crowded night out: it offers a feeling worth sharing.

The city on the Una is gradually becoming a centre of winter magic, thanks less to fireworks than to an atmosphere that draws you in. This is more than a night out; it is a chance to recharge.
Two places, one story: a festival in the city centre
Winter in Bihać has colours, scents and music. Picture this:
- The city square and Bigram basketball court become two stages of one winter story.
- As you walk, the scents of mulled wine and tea mingle in the air. Children’s laughter carries over from the ice rink.
- Lights, music and, above all, good company that warms you better than any jacket.
These are gatherings you remember long after the New Year’s sparkle fades.
The stars matter, but the atmosphere leads
This year, our dear Marija Šerifović is performing for the New Year’s celebration. It promises to be a memorable night.
But the real star is the atmosphere in Bihać: the feeling that the whole region has decided to celebrate together, right here. The energy is catching, and the cold stands little chance against so much good cheer.
If you are choosing where to spend the New Year holidays, Bihać may offer your ideal combination:
- By day: gentle walks along the Una and short trips into nearby nature, something we at Japodski otoci know well. Time for peace and a reset.
- In the evening: put on your favourite jacket and join the festival: music, mulled wine and the city’s lively pulse.
Come and welcome the New Year with us. Let Bihać fill you with energy, lights and warmth. See you in Bihać!
