Festivals in Croatia are still going on, and, with them, many evening music events in almost every major city in Croatia. So, within the "Gric evenings" in Zagreb, you can enjoy jazz and classics (Adrien Moignard, Florin Nicolescu, Ensemble Zefiro ...). The Garden Festival on Murter is just about to end, but the fun continues at the same place with the Electric Elephant 2012 festival. Fans of hardcore punk can enjoy for two days at the free-entrance SAWA festival in Zupanja. The stars of the week are Estelle and Freemasons, which will shake up Umag, as well as Rade Serbedzija, Miroslav Tadic and Vlatko Stefanovski, which will perform on Brijuni Island. The very special Buena Vista Social Club will play in Cavtat – don’t miss it! Finally, Elvis is (of course) still alive, as you can see at the "Now it starts - Elvis Alive!" exhibition in Split. If that is too far, you can always burn a 10 meters high Phoenix in Osijek at the Slama (Straw) Land Art Festival.
