Zagreb Bachata Festival returns to Hotel Zonar in the heart of Zagreb from Friday 20th to Sunday 22nd November 2026 for its 3rd edition. It is a pure bachata festival with more than ten workshops, shows, a competition, daily socials and three theme nights, and this year the parties run on two bachata floors. The lineup brings Yexy Jr. from Spain together with Suarez & Carmen, Felipe & Mateja, Adrien & Dragana, Damjan & Tjaša, Teo & Irena, Marko & Tjaša and a strong group of Croatian and Slovenian teachers. DJ Lena, DJ Panda, DJ Balito, DJ Felipe, DJ Soul Boricua, DJ adHITS and DJ Ceki play the parties, with show groups MEGA, Latina Wmanity and Suavecita Ladies on stage.

Zagreb has grown fast for a third edition: full passes sold out in October, so the way in now is a couple pass, a sponsor pass or a party pass for the three nights. The festival hotel is also the venue, with rooms from 90 € per night, which makes it an easy city break weekend. If you want the workshops, move quickly on the remaining couple passes.
