FEATURES | ZAGREB THE MUSIC MAESTRO ZORAN MARIĆ FOUNDER AND DIRECTOR INMUSIC FESTIVAL Zagreb has a rich events calendar that sees locals pack into dozens of museums, exhibits and festivals celebrating fi lm, comics, modern dance, art and much in between. But, in its home-grown INmusic Festival, the city can boast Croatia’s biggest international open-air event, which welcomes nearly 50,000 revellers each June to discover the music-centric city. “It’s pure fun and leisure, with multiple stages, a variety of artists and friendly locals,” says festival creator and director, Zoran Maric. “We promote quality young bands, and music and culture from all over the world. ” Maric started it up in 2006, when multi-day, open-air festivals were virtually unheard of in Croatia.
