Although, like the rest of the Croatian coast, Rijeka thrives as a tourist destination during the summer, it is a city with a rich cultural heritage and a series of cultural events and activities that you can enjoy throughout the year. In this text, we will explore the events and activities worth visiting in Rijeka in November.<\/p>\n
THEATER
\nFrom November 3 to 11, Rijeka will host the 28th Puppet Theater Festival. Four locations \u2014 Rijeka City Puppet Theatre, HKD Su\u0161ak, Filodrammatica, and the Children’s House \u2014 will host performances and accompanying activities, featuring a total of 12 theaters, including seven from abroad. Pal\u010dica, Ronja \u2013 razbojnikova k\u0107i, Mesarica, Ezopov kola\u017e and Trnoru\u017eica \u2013 elektro bajka are just some of the show titles awaiting you at this unique festival. However, the performances are not the only part of the program. The festival also offers puppet-making workshops for children and parents, drama workshops for teenagers, as well as the presentation of a book on contemporary puppetry.
\nAnd lest it seems that Rijeka’s theater offerings in November are solely focused on puppetry, it’s worth mentioning the regular theater program. Notably, the Croatian National Theatre Ivan pl. Zajc stands out as always. From their program, we highlight: the ballet Sad i nikad vi\u0161e, created in cooperation with the Vara\u017edin HNK; the drama Majka i dijete, performed by guests from the Istrian National Theatre\/City Theatre Pula; and the youngest audience will be delighted by the premiere of Bo\u017ei\u0107na pri\u010da on November 28, which, with the help of spirits from past, present, and future Christmases, imparts a lesson on how selfishness leads to loneliness.
\nThe Croatian Cultural Center in Su\u0161ak, on the other hand, will host a Belgrade play “Bilo jednom na Brijunima,” inspired by the visit of Hollywood actors to Tito and Jovanka Broz at Brijuni.
\nFILM
\nFrom the film offerings, we highlight the Czech Film Week, which takes place from November 2 to 5 at Art-Kino. The event is held in cooperation with the Czech Embassy, and visitors will have the opportunity to watch four recent works by acclaimed Czech filmmakers.<\/p>\n

This month, it’s on November 5, and visitors can choose one of two tour times\u201410 am or 12 pm\u2014and are required to announce their arrival and reserve a spot.
