The five-day Meat Me Festival begins with a big lamb festival that will take place on Tuesday, October 10, at the Old Marketplace in the center of the city of Zadar, in Croatia.
This tourist-gastronomic event in one of the most beautiful Dalmatian cities was organized for the first time in 2019 as an unpretentious boutique festival whose goal was to present the gastronomic tradition of Zadar, its region and Dalmatia. It has become an extremely popular multi-day festival where meat dishes are enjoyed by local people and many tourists, especially neighbors from Slovenia and Italy, who arrive in this city after the main tourist season and the hot summer.
