Punat – the majorette capital of the world!

This past weekend, from June 13 to 15, the National Majorette Championship was held in Punat - a spectacular gathering of the country’s top teams. For the third time, the Island of Krk Majorettes brought this prestigious competition to our town.
The first championship was held in Punat in 2016, followed by another successful edition in 2023. Now, the event has returned once again, confirming Punat as a beloved destination for majorette enthusiasts. The Krk Majorettes, the Croatian Majorette Federation, and the Punat Tourist Board organised the championship, with Marina Punat Group d.o.o. as the main sponsor.

A spectacle of rhythm, colour, and synchronised movement took place at the local parking lot „Gušterna, accompanied by loud cheering from fans. Temporary stands were set up for the occasion and were filled. Supporters, family members, and curious passersby surrounded the entire enclosed area and enjoyed performances by majorettes from across Croatia.

Each year, Marina Punat Group launches a public competition to fund local associations and clubs whose projects benefit the community of Punat. Through anonymous online voting, five winning initiatives were selected this year, including the project by the Croatian Majorette Federation titled: “PUNAT - The Majorette Capital of the World.”

The goal of the project is to position Punat as a regional hub for majorette education and competitions, enhancing the town’s tourism appeal and economic development. The initiative received a €10,000 grant in support of this vision.
