Vela Luka 2026 Trag u beskraju – DAYS OF REMEMBRANCE OF OLIVER DRAGOJEVIĆ

Trace into infinity – Days of remembrance of Oliver Dragojevic refer to the week in which Vela Luka organizes concerts and exhibitions in memory of Oliver Dragojevic and his musical heritage.

29 th of July is the day when Vela Luka, and the whole world as well, remembers its townsman Oliver Dragojevic – an old sea wolf, a friend, an ordinary man, and a great musician.

In that week dedicated to his fruitful musical heritage, his friends, musicians and close family members gather in Vela Luka, his birthplace and his last resting place.

During those days, his music seems to fill the streets of Vela Luka. The locals talk about him, all with sadness in their eyes, but also with a smile, lucky to have known him personally.
