About this venue
Trsatska Gradina is one of Rijeka’s most distinctive summer stages, set within a historic setting that gives events a memorable character. Stone walls, open sky and an elevated position create the feeling of a venue that is not only a place for performances, but part of the experience itself.
As an open-air stage, the venue is especially suited to concerts, cultural evenings and stage programs. Visitors appreciate the more intimate atmosphere, good visibility and the natural acoustics of the space, while the historic architecture adds extra weight to every performance.
The venue is located at Petra Zrinskog b.b., Rijeka, Croatia. Access to the entrance is through the Trsat area, with nearby parking options depending on the event and availability.

About the city
Rijeka, a vibrant port on the Kvarner coast, is both a laid-back Mediterranean getaway and a city with a strong urban pulse, making it an excellent choice for top-tier concerts and major sporting spectacles. Visitors quickly find a great pre- and post-event atmosphere, and the city is well accustomed to guests arriving for big occasions. The mix of sea views, promenades, and city energy creates a distinctive event experience—whether you’re coming for an evening show or a high-stakes match.
A key advantage of Rijeka is its practical connectivity: city and suburban buses run by KD Autotrolej make it easy to move between the centre, neighbourhoods, and the main event areas, while taxis and alternative transport options are available on most days and evenings. If you arrive by train, Rijeka railway station sits close to the city core and the port, which simplifies onward travel to arenas and stadiums. For air travel, Rijeka Airport (RJK) on the island of Krk provides a road connection into the city, supported by straightforward access routes and parking for those driving their own vehicle.
When you have time beyond the event itself, Rijeka delivers a strong sightseeing bonus: stroll along Korzo, the city’s main promenade, explore the old town and its passages, or head down to the waterfront for a walk on Molo Longo. For panoramic views and a touch of history, climb up to Trsat and visit Trsat Castle, and for a short reset, look for calm spots along the Rječina river and its walkways. With diverse dining and accommodation options for different budgets, it’s easy to turn your tickets into a full-day city experience.
