VIVA LA POLA! 2023 | CROWDED, EMOTIONAL & FULFILLING


Viva La Pola! once again showed us how big and strong the Festival's tradition is. This was its 19th edition. The Festival lasted a day but it was one hell of a day!

Bands: Liquid Supercharge, Cold Snap, Brujeria, and D.R.I. (Dirty Rotten Imbeciles) lit the stage on fire with the concerts lasting from 20h until almost 1:30h. It was nice to see our, Croatian, bands sharing the stage with Brujeria and the D.R.I., the seriously long-awaited band. The whole night was dedicated to Alex Bijažić who, sadly, left us two years ago. It was his big wish for D.R.I. to come to Pula one day. It is not hard to imagine that every single note traveled to him, wherever he is now.



Alex Bijažić & Devastation


This edition was made in collaboration with Klub Kotač in Rojc, Pula, like last year.


There were more than a few hundred people in Rojc and besides local people, there were visitors from Belgium, Norway, Italy, and Slovenia.. It was great to see Rojc so full and feel this amazing vibe.


Viva La Pola!, see you on your big 20th anniversary! We can't wait!
