Days of Dalmatian Prosciutto and Wine is a two-day eno-gastronomic and entertainment event held for the ninth year in Vrgorac. It has grown into the largest fair of Dalmatian prosciutto in Croatia and one of the most recognizable events in the destination. In the unique setting of a century-old Austro-Hungarian park and city streets, the event transforms Vrgorac into a true “festival in the city” with multiple stages, a rich fair section, and a diverse program. The focus is on the largest fair of certified Dalmatian prosciutto (an EU-protected product), regularly joined by other certified prosciuttos from Croatia and around the world, accompanied by top-quality wines from indigenous grape varieties and a rich offer of local delicacies. Visitors have the opportunity to taste premium products, meet producers from across the region, and enjoy a blend of gastronomy, tradition, and entertainment through cooking shows, educational programs, competitions, and evening concerts. Each year, the event gathers tens of thousands of visitors and confirms Vrgorac as an unmissable destination for a true Dalmatian eno-gastronomic celebration and authentic experience.

Biklijada is a traditional folk festival offering visitors a unique experience of tasting “bikla” – an indigenous drink made from young wine and goat’s milk, traditionally prepared in the Vrgorac region at a specific time in autumn for generations. The event combines heritage and gastronomy and authentically presents the cultural uniqueness of this part of Dalmatia. For more than a quarter of a century, it has preserved and revived original customs, offering a rich program including an evening fair of local products and handicrafts, folklore and culinary content, and a varied entertainment and music program. Biklijada creates a lively and dynamic atmosphere enjoyed by both locals and visitors seeking authentic events, especially during the post-season period.
