A Firework Spectacle to Celebrate the Patron Saint of Split

One of the highlights of the Split annual calendar is the Feast of St Domnius (or Sv. Duje), the patron saint of the city on May 7. It is a day when the city really comes to life to celebrate the saint, with processions, concerts and parties. This year was no different, and one of the highlights was a magnificent fireworks display which showed the riva in all its majesty.

The spectacle was superbly captured by Zvonimir Barišin, the latest in his fantastic collection of photography in Dalmatia, and we are grateful for his permission to republish. See more of Zvonimir's work on his personal website.

Time to put May 7, 2014 into your holiday diary for Split?
