Spring Break Opening 2026
Season Opening at Papaya Club on Zrce
A special highlight of the weekend was the atmosphere at the famous Papaya Club on Zrce Beach. With international guests, a lively atmosphere, and summer vibes, it was clear: The season in Novalja is picking up speed.
The Papaya Club once again proved why it has been one of the most well-known clubs at Zrce Beach for years, attracting guests from all over Europe every year.
New Kalypso Excites Visitors
For many guests, the first night at the completely renovated Kalypso Club was an absolute highlight. Kalypso presented itself in new splendor and immediately generated excitement.
Especially the performance by Fabian Farell became a real success. Already on the first night, there was an incredible atmosphere, and the visitors celebrated late into the night.
David Puentez and Party Despite Rain
Even though the weather god was not exactly in festival mode on Friday and Saturday, no one at Zrce Beach in Novalja let that dampen their spirits.
Especially on the night from Friday to Saturday, the special energy at Zrce was evident: Despite rain showers, the crowd went wild during David Puentez's performance at Papaya. Instead of seeking shelter, they continued to celebrate, jump, and dance.
Such moments are what make the festivals in Novalja special – when even rain makes no difference.
Four Days of Spring Break at Zrce Beach
From Thursday to Sunday, the Spring Break Opening 2026 offered a weekend full of music, parties, and unforgettable moments at Zrce Beach.
One thing became clear once again: Novalja and Zrce are again among the absolute hotspots for festivals and parties in Europe in 2026 – and summer has just begun.
