Big Beach Spring Break 2026 returns to the iconic shores of Zrće Beach on the island of Pag, Croatia, transforming this legendary summer party destination into a four-day, nonstop celebration of sun, sea, and sound. With beach stage take-overs, world-class clubs and a daring festival vibe, this season’s edition promises to kick off the 2026 party calendar with a bang.

Since its first waves in the early 2010s, Big Beach Spring Break has built a reputation as the ultimate spring-holiday festival for party-seekers from across Europe. Anchored around beach and club venues like Papaya, Aquarius and Kalypso, the event has become known for its high-octane mix of open-air sets, water-sport activations and sunrise-to-sunset revelry.

For its 10th edition in 2026, the festival returns from 22–25 May — a long weekend of house, EDM and mash-ups blazing across the Adriatic shorelines. While the full lineup is still to be announced, expectations are high and the stage is set for top international DJs, nonstop beach parties and unforgettable nights under the stars.

This edition also brings its full holiday-palette offering: party boats slicing across turquoise waters, pool-side daytime sets, wake-boarding and jet-ski excursions, and apartment/villa packages right near Novalja’s buzzing town centre. It’s not just about music — it’s about the ultimate spring break experience.

With party-in-mind logistics, epic coastline views and the promise of a momentous season opener, Big Beach Spring Break 2026 invites you to gather your friends, pack your energy, and dive into one of Europe’s wildest festival getaways.
