Get ready to dive deep into the heart of Croatian football culture with Homefans on a thrilling 3-day adventure centered around the legendary Eternal Derby between Dinamo Zagreb and Hajduk Split. This isn’t just another football trip; it’s a full immersion into one of Europe’s most intense and historic rivalries, guided by a passionate local who knows the ins and outs of the game and the cities.
From the moment you arrive in Zagreb, you’ll be swept up in the excitement. Your journey begins with a warm welcome from your local host and a group of like-minded football enthusiasts. As you settle in, you’ll start to explore the vibrant capital of Croatia, where every corner is steeped in history and brimming with energy. Wander through the picturesque streets of Zagreb’s Upper Town, take in the views from the iconic Lotrščak Tower, and feel the pulse of the city as you visit local hotspots known for their football fervor.
But the highlight of your trip is, of course, the Eternal Derby. You’ll join thousands of passionate fans at the Maksimir Stadium, where the atmosphere is electric and the rivalry is fierce. Your local host will ensure you experience the match like a true insider, from pre-match rituals to post-game celebrations (or commiserations). Along the way, you’ll learn about the deep-rooted history between Dinamo Zagreb and Hajduk Split, and what makes this rivalry so special.
Over these three days, you’ll not only witness an unforgettable match but also forge new friendships, create lasting memories, and gain a deeper understanding of Croatian football culture. This is more than just a game; it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that any true football fan won’t want to miss.
Arrive in Zagreb, meet your local host, and settle in. Spend the afternoon exploring the historic Upper Town, including landmarks like St. Mark’s Church and Lotrščak Tower. End the day with a welcome dinner where you'll be introduced to the rich football culture and history of the Dinamo Zagreb vs. Hajduk Split rivalry.
Start the day with some free time or optional activities around Zagreb. In the afternoon, join the local fans in the pre-match build-up around Maksimir Stadium. Experience the electrifying Eternal Derby between Dinamo Zagreb and Hajduk Split, one of Europe’s most intense football rivalries. After the match, join local fans for post-match celebrations in the city.
Enjoy a relaxed morning with a cultural experience such as visiting Dolac Market or exploring Zagreb’s street art. Gather for a farewell lunch to share memories and then prepare for your departure, concluding your unforgettable Croatian football adventure!
