Treća po redu manifestacija „Zimski grad“ zvanično je otvorena večeras koncertom Dade Macića na trgu pored zgrade Gradske uprave. U odličnoj svirci i raznolikom muzičkom repertoaru uživale su sve generacije, od najmlađih, pa do onih starijih, koji su u opuštenoj atmosferi proveli ugodnu decembarsku večer. Dado Macić, nakon završetka koncerta, kazao je za radiokonjic.ba da mu je pripalo veliko zadovoljstvo da ove godine otvori „Zimski grad“.
,,Winter City” officially opened with a concert by Dado Macić and the band
„Organizatori su se potrudili da obezbijede sve i da nam bude lijepo večeras. Počastio sam ljude pjesmom, onim što najboljem znam, a drago mi je da su večeras posebno uživali najmlađi, oni su naša najdraža publika“– izjavio je Macić.
Ovogodišnja manifestacija, koja će trajati do 15.januara, obiluje bogatim muzičko-zabavnim programom u kojem će svi Konjičani, ali i posjetioci iz drugih gradova, kao i gosti iz dijaspore, koji u ovim prednovogodišnjim danima borave u Konjicu, pronaći nešto za sebe. Jedan od njih, koji dane odmora provodi u rodnom gradu je i poznati bh.fudbaler, reprezentativac BiH, Smail Prevljak. Uživao je večeras na koncertu i u cjelokupnoj atmosferi.
„Stigao sam prije dva-tri dana, sada nam je zimska pauza. Lijepo je da se možemo okupiti na jednom mjestu i družiti se u ovakvom ambijentu. Sigurno da je ovo jedna lijepa priča za Konjic. Uvijek se lijepo vratiti u svoju čaršiju“-kazao je naš reprezentativac za radiokonjic.ba, koji je svima poželio sretnu Novu 2024. godinu.
Tonight, in addition to a good concert, the visitors enjoyed hot tea and sweets, prepared by the members of the “Neretva” Konjic scouts troop.
“We wanted to contribute so much to this event and this was the least we could do. We did it from the heart and we are all happy to warm ourselves with this scout tea” – said Selma Hadžihusejnović, head of the “Neretva” Konjic Scouts Troop.
The association SIN “Neretvica” also contributed to the “Winter City” event. At their stand, visitors could taste roasted chestnuts for free.
“Tonight, all visitors could enjoy the smell and taste of roasted chestnuts, which we roasted here on the spot.” We roasted about 70 kg of chestnuts,” said Refik Boloban, a member of the Management Board of the SIN “Neretvica” Association.
The City of Konjic organizes the event “Winter City” in partnership with the National University, the Sports Hall, the Youth Council and the Ministry of Trade, Tourism and Environmental Protection of the Croatian National Academy of Sciences. Orhan Tucović, the head of the mayor’s office, attended the opening of the event, saying that he was happy about the atmosphere tonight.
“We have a beautifully decorated space tonight, local musicians, kids, which is the most important thing. It is important that there are smiles, good will and that everyone is enjoying themselves. If it’s like tonight, we’ll be happy. We want to have that tradition, primarily for the sake of the citizens of Konjic, but also for the sake of tourists, guests from the diaspora, to show that we are a city that nurtures tourism even during the winter period,” Tucović said.
This year, the City of Konjic provided free transportation for residents from rural areas during this year’s event, which continues tomorrow at 6:30 p.m. on the square near the City Administration, where elementary schools from the City of Konjic will hold a program called “Snow Magic.”
