On August 16, Stari Grad celebrates the Day of Stari Grad and its patron saint, St. Rocco.
Even though religious and traditional events dedicated to St. Rocco are an attraction in itself, especially the town procession with the statue of St. Rocco and the ever fascinating voices of Stari Grad singers, the Day of Stari Grad also abounds in a whole variety of cultural and entertainment events, culminating in a big folk festival, evening concert and fireworks.
