Fairs in Istria

Fairs are the life-blood of every small town and in Istria they have kept to their traditions - every town has its own fair and a specific day on which it is held.

Beside its main role of bring together vendors and buyers, every fair has its own identity and uniquely represents the spirit of tradition, here you can find almost everything – buying, selling, bargaining, socialising... in an atmosphere redolent of history.
