For the 31st time of asking, the annual Monteparadiso festival will be attracting the finest exponents of hardcore punk to Istria's main city of Pula. Running over four days, from Friday, August 4 to Monday, August 7, bands from the USA, Spain, Sweden, France and countries closer to Croatia will be appearing at the Rojc cultural centre, a former barracks south of town and hub of the city’s alternative culture.
Look out for Stalag 13 from California, Tentáculo from Seville and Parisians Les Marteaux Pikettes. For the full line-up and all details, see here. On-site camping free!
