Visualia Festival is Croatia's first festival of light, showcasing audiovisual art and innovative technologies in Pula since 2013. The event features spectacular light installations, including the iconic 'Lighting Giants' at the Uljanik Shipyard.
Visualia Festival, the Festival of Light, will be held from September 19 to 21. The 10th edition of this festival of light attracts a great number of both domestic and foreign visitors.
Visualia Festival is the first festival of light in Croatia, and the fact that it is being held for the ninth year in a row is proof of its great quality. Visualia presents the magic and beauty of new technologies and audiovisual art and at the same time has a great impact on city branding.
Pula's Visualia Festival was held for the first time in 2013, with 3D Mapping, and its program has been increasing every year. Already the following year it also included the "Lighting Giants", illuminated cranes of Uljanik Shipyard, which have become the city's new attraction and symbol. In 2015, the Guinness world record was broken in the Arena, for the largest photography of people forming a light sign, known as the "Light Postcard". In 2018, Visualia Festival was included in the calendar of international light festivals.
During the three days of Visualia Festival around 15,000 visitors are expected who will surely enjoy this unique and unforgettable experience.
