The Festival
Another new dance music festival for the grounds of the Garden in Petrcane, near Zadar, SuncéBeat is organised by the people behind the successful Southport Weekender.
With a capacity for 2,500 people and two outdoor stages, SuncéBeat also offers many of the Garden's great amenities, including various bars and the on-site club. Not to mention the boat parties for 200 people a time (tickets for these are sold separately) that's a mainstay of many of Petrcane's festivals!
The line-up currently includes Joey Negro, Jazzie B, The Martinez Brothers and Dennis Ferrer, though more acts are being added to the bill all the time. Tickets for SuncéBeat
Tickets cost £80 for the weekend, though there's free entry for children 12 and under. (Under-18s must be accompanied by someone over the age of 21). A weekend ticket does not include entrance to boat or after parties.
Tickets can be bought from the Southport Weekender booking page.
Accommodation for the Festival
SuncéBeat is located within the grounds of the 4* Hotel Pinija, so this would be the easiest option in terms of booking accommodation. However, the hotel does tend to get booked up pretty quickly, so if you'd like to stay at this hotel, make sure you book it soon!

There are a couple of campsites that are situated close to the Festival site: Autocamp Peros-Zaton and Camp Pineta. Both of these accept tents and motorhomes (if you have one!) but are relatively small, so may get booked up and full relatively quickly.
