Polo Rovinj, an enthralling new polo tournament in the picturesque
Adriatic region, awaits your visit…
Set against the enchanting skyline of the
medieval town of Rovinj, Croatia, the second
Rovinj Beach polo tournament took place
from 18-21 May 2017. Rated among the 20
most beautiful towns in Europe, the town is
characterised by colourful architecture and
its unique location on the headland of the
Istrian peninsula.
Six international polo teams competed
at the event, encompassing players from
the UK, Hungary, Germany, Brazil, Slovakia,
Argentina, Switzerland and Italy. The polo
arena, built especially for the occasion,
welcomed thousands of spectators and VIP
guests from across the globe. International
sponsors – including Adris, Bentley, D1
Milano, Jana, Miller and Veuve Cliquot –
supported their polo teams, while La Martina
was the official sportswear supplier.
Guests and players alike enjoyed the
beautiful decorations, culinary highlights
and world-class entertainment that brought
a party spirit to the event and made it a truly
memorable occasion for all involved.
The continued success and quality of
the tournament, which is in its second year,
demonstrates the enthusiasm of its
organisers – led by President of the Board
of Polo Rovinj, Uwe Zimmermann and his
team – to establish an ongoing tradition
of polo in Croatia.
There are a selection of new five-star
Maistra hotels and resorts that provide
luxurious accommodation and delectable
culinary experiences, set within the
outstanding natural beauty of Rovinj
and the surrounding archipelago.
The glamour of international celebrities
and stars who visit the region demonstrates
the high level of hospitality that has turned
the Adriatic coast of Croatia into one of
Europe's top destinations for luxury
tourism and unforgettable holidays.
