Children's Festival Kalanko
Since 2024, the Kalanko Children's Festival has been bringing a special spirit to Komiža at the beginning of May, transforming it into a meeting place for children, families and the local community. The festival was designed with the aim of preserving and promoting maritime heritage, and through a carefully designed program, it brings the rich tradition of life by the sea closer to the youngest. Children have the opportunity to participate in various workshops, games and theatrical performances that convey stories about fishing life, customs and the sea as an inexhaustible source of inspiration in a fun way. Creative activities, storytelling, songs and interactive games stimulate their imagination, but also develop a sense of connection with local culture. Kalanko is not only a festival of fun, but also a space for learning and togetherness, where the values of preserving heritage and respect for the sea are conveyed through socializing and playing. In this way, Komiža gets an event that combines education and creativity and offers the youngest an unforgettable experience, while at the same time preserving the spirit of tradition for future generations.
