But really, how does one live like a local in Split? Here is the perspective of two foreigners: Noe Rios and Adam Lauer.

The Tourist Board of Split has announced the full programme for “Night of Museums” which will take place this Friday, January 27th. Be sure to save the date and don’t miss out - there are plenty of events for you to enjoy this year...and they're free!

Joško Stella, director of the Tourist Board of Split-Dalmatia County, comments on the upcoming tourism projects this year.

Diocletian’s Palace, the staple of Split and the pride and joy of Splićani, is rich and full of history - but how much do you really know? We guarantee you that this 3D video will grant you new knowledge and wisdom about your favorite Roman emperor, and you’ll even be entertained watching it. 

As we mentioned last week, the Tourist Board of Split announced the numbers for 2016. In 2016 total, Split recorded 574,917 arrivals and 1,763,080 overnight stays, which is an increase in arrivals by 27%, and an increase in overnight stays by 31%. Most of the tourists to Split were from the UK, Germany, USA, France and Australia.  In December alone there were 11,020 arrivals and 23,496 overnight stays, which is a 19% increase in arrivals compared to 2015. After a record tourist season, the Tourist Board of Split extends their gratitude and announces plans for the future, as reported by Slobodna Dalmacija on January 9, 2017. 

Split is a hit! It’s no surprise that the number of tourists who decide to travel to Split grows from year to year, but of course most tourists come during the summer season. This year, Advent in Split has given an even bigger boost, drawing great numbers of tourism for the off-season. 

Exactly two months away, the Split Half Marathon will take place from the 24-26 of February 2017.

The Split Tourist Board ended this year after a festive session of the Assembly. While we didn’t think the year could get any better for the city, all travel records were broken - making for an exciting future in 2017.

Since Thursday is essentially the start to a weekend, and Advent in Split is full with things to do, here are the concert happenings and events taking over the holiday season in Split from tonight, 15 December to Sunday 18 December.

Since it’s getting colder and the idea of bundling up to a good film is feeling more comfortable, here what December has in store at Zlatna Vrata. This schedule is brought to you by Zlatna Vrata and the Tourist Board of Split.
