The Biograd Boat Show Experience
The show has gained its international popularity due to Croatia’s importance as a boating destination and Ilirija’s well managed facilities including Marina Kornati, Ilirija hotels, restaurants, and entertainment facilities. The secret to the show’s success is the festive environment and special atmosphere resulting from a large boat show held in a spectacular natural setting while partnered with an intimate resort town. This is the Biograd Boat Show experience! When the sun sets, the exhibiting stops and the party begins, with a legendary entertainment program that spills into the town center.
