“Besides the Bingo Konjic race and the traditional children’s race, we have a business race on Friday at 6:30 p.m. that gathers around 250 participants, that is, 28 companies. After that, we have Lana Hamza’s concert in Garden City. The entrance is completely free and I invite all our citizens to come and have some fun and feel the charm of the festival. On Saturday at 11:00 a.m., we have the “GRAWE Kids Run”, a race for 200 little ones that is already full and starts from the City Market in Konjic. The central part of the event is at 7:30 p.m., where we have the “Equestrian Bingo Race” and the “Ibis Relay Race”, a male-female relay race and, for the first time in Konjic, the 10,000-meter state championship, where we have 20 of the best athletes from Bosnia and Herzegovina who will fight for the national champion of Bosnia and Herzegovina in this discipline. After that, we have a performance by Emir Lapsus at the outdoor pool in Garden City. On Sunday, we are waiting for a crawl at 6:30 p.m., and 15 babies will fight for the best crawling baby in Konjic”, stated Mujić.

According to Mahir’s words, Konjic Summer Fest will also this year gather a large number of participants from entire region

“I can say that companies from the “TOP 100″ are coming to us, which we will present in the parade at 17:45. Then we have 400 participants in the 10k race called ”cener”, 100 participants in the relay, 250 participants in the business race, 200 participants in the children’s race, 15 babies in the crawling race and 20 participants in the national championship. The sponsor is the City of Konjic and I can say that I am proud of all the public institutions that supported us and I must mention our friends of the project who come from Dubrovnik, Serbia and Sarajevo to volunteer. This year we have two novelties, and that is that we have provided a bus that goes from Sarajevo to Konjic on Saturday completely free of charge, and then returns the runners to Sarajevo, and we plan to make this a tradition. We also introduced a novelty with accreditations, where we gave all participants in big races additional discounts in the city of Konjic”.

Mujić called on his fellow citizens to be patient and cooperate due to the short-term stoppage of traffic during the races, wishing that we would show ourselves as good hosts and accompany and support this project in as many numbers as possible.

This year, the following novelties await you at the Konjic Summer Fest:

• Accreditations have been introduced that are valid for all days of the festival (5th to 7th July 2024). With accreditation, participants will be able to use additional discounts at local partners.
• Free transportation to the top racing event – Konjic Summer Fest, in cooperation with the Konjic Trans company, is provided. The bus leaves on Saturday, July 6, in front of the National Museum at 2:00 p.m., stopping at the Otoka bus station and the Stup bus station. The return is scheduled for around 22:00.
