Open Heart Street: New Year’s Day in Belgrade with Locals

New Year’s Day in Belgrade is an absolute delight, especially if you find yourself in the charming and lively event known as the Open Heart Street. This fantastic festival isn’t confined to just one location; it spreads its infectious joy across numerous streets in Belgrade, including the city center. But let me tell you about my personal favorite – the one that takes place in the Požeška Street in Banovo Brdo.

As the relaxed afternoon unfolds, the streets usually clogged with traffic become a playground for the community. The buzz of amusement park rides, the aroma of mulled wine, and the laughter of visitors fill the air. And oh, the ‘red nose’ – the emblematic symbol of the Open Heart Street. It’s not just a trinket; it’s a gesture of support for a charitable purpose, to brighten the hospital days of children undergoing treatment.

This isn’t just an event for the adults; it’s a family affair. Kids delight in the whimsical world of the children’s amusement park, brimming with rides and games that will leave them wide-eyed and giggling with joy. Meanwhile, parents can relish strolling through the festivities, enjoying live concerts featuring popular local artists, sipping mulled wine, and soaking in the heartwarming atmosphere.

So, if you fancy a break from the typical New Year’s Eve hullabaloo and prefer an afternoon of community, laughter, and spreading goodwill, the Open Heart Street in Belgrade is where you need to be on January 1. Trust me; it’s an experience that will warm your heart and start your year on the most uplifting note imaginable.
