Advent Park Gruž: A Relaxed Way for Digital Nomads to Experience Dubrovnik’s Christmas Spirit

Dubrovnik has a new festive hotspot this winter, and for digital nomads looking to connect with the city beyond the Old Town, Advent Park in Gruž offers an easy, welcoming way to experience the local Christmas atmosphere.
Designed as a neighbourhood-style festival, it combines concerts, after-work events and relaxed entertainment, making it especially appealing to those living and working in Dubrovnik over the winter.
Weekends are family-friendly, with creative workshops and animated programmes for children, while Fridays are tailored for professionals, with Afterwork Mingle & Trash Party evenings featuring guest DJs — an ideal way to unwind after a workday and meet both locals and fellow nomads.
Organisers say the first edition of Advent Park blends music, laughter, creativity and community — creating a new festive tradition that feels less touristy and more local. For digital nomads spending the winter in Dubrovnik, it’s an ideal place to experience the city’s Christmas spirit, one evening at a time.
