INmusic festival is the biggest international open-air festival in Croatia. The festival is held annually in June in Zagreb and takes place on Youth Island in the middle of Zagreb's Lake Jarun. Located in the pretty surrounding of Lake Jarun on the outskirts of the Zagreb, the INmusic Festival attracts a number of big-name pop and rock artists. The festival started in 2006 and is usually held over two or three days. It includes several genre-specific stages with internationally renowned indie rock, heavy metal and electronic artists.

Camping

INmusic is a camping festival which boasts six stages and middle size crowds and it costs less than major European festivals. The camping facilities include services like hot showers, free WiFi, storage of personal items, and charging stations for electronic devices. Since the camp is located on the island in the middle of the lake, visitors can enjoy swimming and sports like volleyball, soccer, rollerblading, cycling, table tennis, mini golf and many more. This will be perfect for those wanting to keep costs low, not to mention for those people who think a festival isn’t a festival without camping.

Organized trips and city tour

All visitors have the opportunity to take organized trips to attractive destinations, like the Plitvice lakes or go kayaking on the rivers Mrežnica and Una. The more curious ones who want to learn something more about Zagreb's history and familiarize themselves with the heart and soul of the city can enjoy a city tour.

Transport

From the Central Railway Station, the best route to take is the tram number 4 heading south as far as the 'Savski most' stop. From there, both number 5 and 17 trams run to the Jarun stop. From the Zagreb Central Bus Terminal, you can get onto the tram number 5. All public transport in and around Zagreb is free with an INmusic Festival ticket. Zagreb Aiport is around half an hour from the city centre, and shuttle buses go every 30 minutes.

Awards

With a central location, great organisation and a top line-up, it’s no surprise that in 2014 INmusic was once again nominated in the category of Best Medium-Sized Festival in the European Festival Awards. The stunning scenery of Lake Jarun has been a big part of the festival's unique, family-like atmosphere since the very start in 2006.
