New Year’s Eve in Pula

If you’re looking for a completely new experience this New Year’s Eve why not head to the exciting peninsula of Istria? Described by The Independent as a peninsula that “dangles like a heart-shaped pendant,” Istria is a fabulous spot for those seeking a romantic, fun and memorable escape. And there’s no time like New Year’s Eve to experience the very best of a region.

Visit Pula

Located on the southern tip of the peninsula, Pula is Istria’s largest city. With views stretching across the Adriatic and snuggled beneath seven hills, Pula boasts a fabulous position. It is also home to a vast selection of quality bars, restaurants and nightclubs, meaning if you visit this vibrant Croatian city on New Year’s Eve, you won’t be short of venues to attend.

Pietas Julia

One fabulous venue is the ultra-trendy Pietas Julia. This atmospheric lounge and disco bar can be found on the harbour. During the day Pietas Julia serves breakfasts and snacks and by night turns into a swanky disco venue, with plenty of music, food and drinks on offer until the early hours of the morning.

Aruba

Known as the spot where the party people of Pula head to meet like-minded souls, Aruba is a relaxing café-bar by day and an energetic live music venue by night.

Crowds congregate on the bar’s outdoor terrace, which can get pretty crowded. If you’re looking for a great party atmosphere this New Year’s Eve, you’re unlikely to be disappointed with Aruba.

Scandal Express

Described by Time Out as a “Tiny, smoky dive where local bohemians meet”, Scandal Express might be small but it’s exceptionally trendy. Being a popular gathering spot amongst the locals, this poster-strewn bar tends to get crowded, with people spilling out into the narrow street it is located on.
