The General Rehearsal for the Opening Ceremony
An event that the audience couldn't wait to start – the General Rehearsal for the grand opening of the 62nd Dubrovnik Summer Festival – was traditionally held the day before the opening itself, on Saturday, the 9th of July, at midnight in front of St. Blaise’s church.

With the Festival drama ensemble performing and with the screenplay and direction firmly in the hands of Dora Ruždjak, with music by Frano Đurović, costumes by Danica Dedijer and maestro Ivan Repušić conducting both the Dubrovnik symphony orchestra and the Zagreb Philharmonic, this will surely be a night to remember. The sopran Valentina Fijačko, a well known guest of the Festival will take part in the musical part of the programme.
