The seventh edition of “Konjic Summer Fest,” organized by the athletics club “Pace” and under the patronage of the City of Konjic, will take place from July 4 to 6. The festival will host over 1,200 participants from 15 countries competing in five different races. The official opening of the festival is scheduled for Friday, featuring the “BH Telecom Business Run,” which will include 41 companies and 400 participants, said Mahir Mujić, Director of “Konjic Summer Fest.”
Today is the start of “Konjic Summer Fest 2025.”
“The seventh international ‘Konjic Summer Fest’ kicks off today, and we’re in for a weekend of top-notch entertainment in our city,” said Mahir Mujić. “Today is Business Day, featuring the ‘BH Telecom Business Run,’ with 41 registered companies and 400 participants.The race will start at 7 PM in the city center, with both the start and finish lines located at the small square near the City Hall building. After the race, we’ll enjoy a solo concert by our very own Amar Jašarspahić Gile, who has brilliantly represented the Bosnian and Herzegovinian music scene. We’re organizing the concert on a grand scale, and I’m confident that all visitors will enjoy this musical event.”
On the second day of the festival, Saturday, July 5, three races will be held: a children’s race with 200 young participants, the main event – the “Bingo Konjic Ten” – and the relay race “Ibis Relay Race,” with around 600 runners taking part in the two events. On Saturday evening, from 9:30 PM until midnight, the Sarajevo Drum Orchestra and a DJ will perform,” said Mujić. The third day of “Konjic Summer Fest,” Sunday, July 6, will be dedicated to families, featuring a “baby crawl race” and other fun activities for children and parents.
“Family Day will take place from 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM at the Partizanovo playground, where we’ll have large inflatable slides, trampolines, and plenty of fun for the little ones. The sweetest part of the program will be the third edition of the baby crawl race, featuring 17 babies — and for the first time, it will be held in the center of Konjic,” emphasized Mahir Mujić, Director of “Konjic Summer Fest.” He added that the festival will conclude with a diploma ceremony for the young volunteers — more than 150 of them were engaged this year through various organizations and associations. Several thousand visitors are expected to attend “Konjic Summer Fest,” where they will have the opportunity to enjoy a rich mix of sports, entertainment, music, and tourism-related events. This year’s festival is supported by numerous individuals, organizations, and groups, alongside sponsors and partners, all with a shared goal — to make “Konjic Summer Fest” an even better and more recognized festival each year, not only in Bosnia and Herzegovina but across the region.
