Stance Adria is an annual beach gathering in Jadranovo that features an exhibition of meticulously modified cars. This innovative event was first held in 2018 and has become a beloved annual spectacle in September, lasting for two days.
Visitors have the opportunity to enjoy tuned cars by the seaside and relax by the sea while admiring their wheeled favorites. Stance Adria attracts the attention of car enthusiasts from all over Europe, with a growing number of vehicles and visitors from across the continent.
With well-known brands and innovative products for car lovers, the event offers not only a car exhibition but also an unforgettable evening party with a renowned DJ and cocktails. Stance Adria is more than just a car meet – it is an experience that celebrates the passion for cars and brings enthusiasts together along the Adriatic coast.
Stance Adria was born spontaneously, organized in less than one month as a pure passion project.
The very first event gathered 80 cars, despite limited infrastructure. At the time, the new beach did not yet exist, so all cars were displayed on the seaside near Grote Bar and along the road.
What started as a small, improvised meet immediately showed its potential.
In its second year, Stance Adria already showed clear growth, welcoming 120 cars.
The event was again held on the seaside and along the road, as no dedicated beach area was available yet. The community grew stronger, and the event started gaining recognition across the region.
Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, Stance Adria could not be held for two consecutive years. During this period, a new beach was constructed, but unfortunately, it was not available for event use at that time.
The break only made the community more eager for the event’s return.
After the pandemic break, Stance Adria returned stronger than ever.
The event hosted 160 cars, displayed across the seaside, promenade, and nearby areas, with a portion of the new beach used for the first time.
This year also introduced a smaller boat party with a DJ, adding a new dimension to the overall experience.
For the first time, Stance Adria was granted access to the entire beach area.
The event expanded to 300 cars, creating a fully dedicated seaside venue.
Once again, a smaller boat party with a DJ took place, becoming part of the event’s growing identity.
In 2024, Stance Adria reached a new milestone.
The beach was fully enclosed for the first time, paid entry was introduced, and the event featured 300 cars and around 4,000 visitors.
A large party boat with a DJ was introduced, while DJ sets and live performances by well-known regional rappers took place on the beach.
2025 marked the biggest step forward so far.
Stance Adria became a two-day main event for the first time, featuring DJ parties and performances by two well-known Croatian rappers on the beach.
The event hosted 300 selected cars and around 10,000 visitors, alongside a large party boat with a DJ.
Car applications reached record numbers, with 1,600+ confirmed submissions and over 2,000 total attempts, highlighting the event’s growing demand and prestige.
Get ready for September 2026 with more stanced and tuned cars, seaside showcases, and unforgettable experiences. Spots are limited and excitement is building across Europe and beyond.
