On the occasion of the biggest Christian holiday, Easter, the Tourist Board of the City of Zagreb (TZGZ) will this year present visitors and citizens of Zagreb with six special Easter concerts in the period from April 9 to 16 . The concerts will be performed by the LADO Ensemble, the "Ivan Filipović" Chamber Choir, the Project Lazarus Ensemble, the Tamara Obrovac Transhistria Ensemble and the Zagreb Quartet . Concert locations and dates vary by day, and the entire program is available at: www.infozagreb.hr, as well as in the program we deliver. Entrance to all concerts is free.
On Easter Monday, the new season of the Changing of the Guard of the Honorary Company of the Kravat Regiment traditionally begins. The ceremony starts at 11:30 a.m. with the joining of the cavalry and infantry formations and the handing over of the flag at the intersection of Mesnička Street and Ilica, and ends at 1:00 p.m. on Ban Josip Jelačić Square, with the handover of the flag and the separation of the machine. The program is performed by 13 infantrymen and 4 horsemen, and in case of unfavorable weather conditions, the Changing of the Guard is cancelled.
In addition to the Easter concerts, TZGZ decorated the locations where the concerts will be held, with Easter decorations decorated with flowers and easter eggs. Thus, festive holiday decorative motifs will decorate the atrium of the Zagreb City Museum, where the Zagreb Quartet will perform a concert on Tuesday, April 11, starting at 8:00 p.m. Also, the premises of the church of St. Francis Xaverski, church of St. Quirinus and the Greek Catholic co-cathedral of St. Cyril and Methodius.
