This yearโ€™s Ponta Lopud Film Festival will present a special musical cinematic homage to the legendary Ennio Morricone, an artist whose music shaped some of the most unforgettable moments in film history.

On the magical island of Lopud, audiences will experience a unique journey: from a screening of Ennio by acclaimed director Giuseppe Tornatore to a grand closing concert under the stars, dedicated to Morriconeโ€™s timeless compositions.

We are especially excited to bring together outstanding local musicians and internationally renowned artists on the same stage, a meeting of local artistic spirit and world class musical excellence.

The grand concert program will be performed by the Dubrovnik Symphony Orchestra under the baton of maestro Robert Homen, with music director and arranger Shaun Crawford and special guests Thana Alexa, Antonio Serrano, FA Linฤ‘o, and Green Tea Co..

Four women, one island and the most beautiful cultural destination on the Adriatic.

Most of us plan summer around beaches and restaurants, but there is one place where summer is measured differently, the island of Lopud. A peaceful, car-free gem with palm trees and crystal-clear sea, where days are counted through film screenings under the stars, jazz concerts and literary conversations.

Behind this story are four women who turned an idea into a platform: ๐“๐ก๐š๐ง๐š ๐€๐ฅ๐ž๐ฑ๐š, ๐“๐ข๐ฅ๐๐š ๐†๐ซ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฅ ๐๐จ๐ ๐๐š๐ง๐จ๐ฏ๐ขฤ‡, ๐’๐ฎ๐ณ๐š๐ง๐š ๐๐ž๐ซ๐ขฤ‡ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐’๐ญ๐šลก๐š ๐€๐ซ๐š๐ฌ.

Through Ponta Lopud, they have created a space that now lives through three festivals: Film Festival, Jazz Festival and Book Bridge. In an interview for Gloria, they reveal why Lopud has become a synonym for a different kind of holiday, one that inspires, connects and changes perspective. โ˜บ


ฤŒetiri ลพene, jedan otok i najljepลกa kulturna adresa Jadrana.

Veฤ‡ina nas ljeto planira prema plaลพama i restoranima, ali postoji jedno mjesto gdje se ljeto mjeri drugaฤije, otok Lopud!

Miran dragulj bez automobila, s palmama i kristalno ฤistim morem gdje se dani broje kroz filmske projekcije pod zvjezdanim nebom, jazz koncerte i knjiลพevne razgovore.

Iza te priฤe stoje ฤetiri ลพene koje su od ideje stvorile platformu: ๐“๐ก๐š๐ง๐š ๐€๐ฅ๐ž๐ฑ๐š, ๐“๐ข๐ฅ๐๐š ๐†๐ซ๐จ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฅ ๐๐จ๐ ๐๐š๐ง๐จ๐ฏ๐ขฤ‡, ๐’๐ฎ๐ณ๐š๐ง๐š ๐๐ž๐ซ๐ขฤ‡ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐’๐ญ๐šลก๐š ๐€๐ซ๐š๐ฌ.

Did you know that one of the most important traditions of the Dubrovnik region has been celebrated for over a thousand years?

The Feast of Saint Blaise, dating back to the 10th century, is much more than a single day, itโ€™s a symbol of identity, continuity, and community that connects the city, its surroundings, and nearby islands.

Recognised since 2009 on UNESCOโ€™s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, the Festa is a living tradition that brings together history, culture and heritage.

From traditional costumes and banners to the unique energy felt across Dubrovnik and beyond during those days, the Festa proudly reminds us of the importance of preserving the rich heritage of the Dubrovnik region.


Jeste li znali da se jedna od najvaลพnijih tradicija dubrovaฤkog kraja slavi veฤ‡ viลกe od tisuฤ‡u godina?

Festa svetog Vlaha, koja svoje korijene vuฤe iz 10. stoljeฤ‡a, mnogo je viลกe od jednog dana. Festa je simbol identiteta, kontinuiteta i zajedniลกtva koji povezuje Grad, njegovu okolicu i obliลพnje otoke.

Od 2009. godine upisana je na Reprezentativnu listu nematerijalne kulturne baลกtine ฤovjeฤanstva UNESCO-a te predstavlja ลพivu tradiciju koja spaja povijest, obiฤaje i kulturu.

Od tradicionalnih noลกnji i barjaka do posebne energije koja se tih dana osjeti diljem Dubrovnika i ลกire, Festa ponosno podsjeฤ‡a na vaลพnost oฤuvanja bogate baลกtine dubrovaฤkog kraja.
