Saturday's events begin with an embroidery workshop focused on mindfulness, followed by a parade led by the Zagreb ZET Orchestra. The children's play "ฤuro the Shrimp's Sea Adventures" will be presented, along with the French crime drama "Private Life," directed by Rebecca Zlotowski and starring Jodie Foster.

Sunday's schedule includes a guided walk exploring the Zagreb Fair's past, present, and future, led by cultural anthropologist Sonja Leboลก. This walk aims to discuss how the modernist space can serve the neighborhood's needs while improving its maintenance. The festival will also feature a contemporary circus performance by El Cric, showcasing acrobatics and aerial props with humor. The evening concludes with the dark comedy "Directly to the Head," starring experienced actors Borko Periฤ‡ and Filip Deteliฤ‡, promising a unique audience experience.
