Popolana
This year's Popolana in Rovinj
On Saturday, April 26, 2024, join us at Popolana, a sports event organized by the Sports Association of the City of Rovinj-Rovigno, in collaboration with the Red Cross Rovinj-Rovigno, with the support of the City of Rovinj-Rovigno and the Tourist Board.
Humanitarian Mission
All proceeds from T-shirt sales will be allocated for humanitarian purposes. Support this commendable initiative!
Location and Program
Popolana will take place at the Basketball Courts near Hotel Eden, due to construction work on the city square. Join recreational activities, a half-marathon, or a relay race.
Humanitarian Contribution
The first Popolana was held in 2007 at the initiative of the City of Rovinj Sports Association, with the support of the City of Rovinj, the Tourist Board, and Maistra. Since then, the event has evolved into a major humanitarian campaign called "1+1=Millions of Steps," raising funds for members of the local community in need.
Charity and Sports at the Heart of the Event
This year's Popolana, like all previous editions, will be dedicated to kindness and humanity. All proceeds from T-shirt sales will be donated for the therapy of a four-year-old fellow citizen. Due to construction work on the city square, this year's Popolana will be held at the Basketball Courts near Hotel Eden, with a humanitarian stand also set up at Pignaton Square in the heart of Rovinj-Rovigno.
New Route, New Challenges
The most significant novelty in the sports program is the return of the Rovinj Half-Marathon, while the recreational part includes walking, a 5 km run, and guided cycling tours of 20-25 km. Register and support the humanitarian action, while enjoying HELL isotonic drinks, Kampanjola eco-friendly beer, and race T-shirts.
