festivals under the same umbrella: the EXIT

SEA STAR
Fresh Island is Europe’s leading hip-hop
and urban music festival, set against the
backdrop of the stunning island of Pag in
Croatia.The festival has become renowned

ent to the shores of Zrce Beach to play

Hideout Festival Croatia made its spec-
tacular debut in 2010 and has been the
talk of the dance festival circuit ever since.
Hideout is a beachside event in a stun-
ning and unique location on Zrce Beach,
The Isle of Pag, Croatia. With the previous
years being complete sell-outs, each year
manages to attract an even bigger lineup.
However the organizers refuse to make the
capacity bigger, maintaining their focus
on quality for each individual festival goer,
which makes a refreshing change to most
festivals.
Croatia has in recent years become one
of the hottest destinations in the world
for the clubbing community to go and let
loose and many of Europe’s most commit-
ted dance fans now head there year after
year in favour of the traditional summer
destinations such as Ibiza. Hideout Festival
is perched on one of finest beaches in
the area that runs the entire length of the
island and is surrounded by a variety of
bars, restaurants, water sports and attrac-
tions.erat.

The Garden team and The Craig Charles
Funk and Soul Club represent Beats, Beer
& Boogaloo, a new festival on the Croatian
coast, which will be held July 13 to 17,
2017.
The festival presents a unique blend of
craft beers from around the world as the
great funk and soul-up of DJs and musi-
cians, and the lineup will create Craig
Charles, the legendary actor and one of
the most popular British DJs.
The festival is a party to the ships, the eve-
ning at the club Barbarella's, street food
concept, guided tours and testing beer,
carnival procession through the streets
of Tisno and many surprises, and the first
names on the lineup will be revealed in
March.
Beats, Beer & Boogaloo festival brings a
new concept in Croatia and the whole
region. The Garden Festival has put Croatia
on the festival map of the world, and
the founders Nick and Charlotte Colgan
launched the whole festival scene with one
of the most popular musical events.
After The Garden Festival shut down after
10 years of existence, a new era began with
the most ambitious project. The Brewery
Garden - a craft brewery was opened in
Zagreb, which is a manufacturing plant,
but also a place of great music and a vari-
ety of programs.
The Garden Brewery named best new craft
brewery in Croatia last year, according to
the decision of readers of the international
website RateBeer.com.
Craig Charles, the legendary actor, director
and editor of the radio is one of the most
popular funk and soul DJs in the UK. From
the beginning of a series of Red Dwarf
through emissions Robot Wars, Craig is a
true icon after decades of broadcasting his
show on BBC 6 Music.
The idea of the Beats, Beer & Boogaloo
started when Craig Charles visited The
Garden Brewery, and together they cre-
ated a new festival, continuing on Craig's
desire to organize the event in Croatia, and
Colgan ideas to re-organize the festival.
Beats, Beer & Boogaloo will connect all
generations, lovers of craft beer, sun and
sea, and of course great music.
