In the heart of the Croatian mountains, a group of passionate individuals with a love for winter sports and music came together to organize the first-ever "Gremo na Sljeme" Ski Music Festival. The festival took its name from the iconic Sljeme mountain, known for its stunning slopes and panoramic views. The founders aimed to create a unique experience where the thrill of skiing and snowboarding could seamlessly blend with the exhilaration of live music.
The inaugural event featured a modest stage set up at the base of Sljeme, with local bands providing the musical backdrop to a day of skiing and snowboarding. Attendees, both locals and international visitors, were drawn to the festival's intimate setting and the opportunity to enjoy their favorite music in a winter wonderland.
Word about Gremo na Sljeme began to spread, and the festival saw a significant increase in attendance. The organizers secured partnerships with local ski resorts, allowing the festival to expand its footprint and offer a more extensive lineup of both regional and international musical acts. With multiple stages set up across the slopes, attendees could ski or snowboard between performances, creating a dynamic and immersive experience.
As Gremo na Sljeme celebrated its tenth anniversary, it had firmly established itself as a staple in the winter festival scene. The festival grounds now featured not only music stages but also snow sculptures, art installations, and various winter-themed activities. The event attracted top-tier artists, drawing attendees from neighboring countries and beyond.
