Who is Marko Perkovic - Thompson and why does he fill large halls

Marko Perkovic - Thompson is one of the most recognizable Croatian musicians whose career has spanned several decades, and his audience remains exceptionally loyal across different generations. His rise is closely linked to the early nineties and the songs that marked the period of the Homeland War, after which his repertoire expanded towards rock production, ballads, and songs of a spiritual and patriotic tone. It is precisely this combination, along with a firm stage identity, that creates a concert framework in which people do not feel only like visitors but as participants, which explains why tickets for his performances are often in high demand even when the concert is held in a large capacity hall. Over the years, Thompson has released several albums and built a recognizable sound in which a rock backbone merges with elements of traditional melody, and the concert experience is further shaped by massive choruses and the dramaturgy of the evening. Regardless of whether you are coming for nostalgia, the band's energy, or because you want to hear live the songs that have been passed down for years as a kind of soundtrack to many private moments, this evening at Arena Zagreb offers a format in which all of that meets in one space.

Musical signature: a blend of rock, ethno, and choral moments

Thompson's musical signature relies on classic rock instrumentation, but its character is given by melodic lines and rhythms that reminiscent of traditional music from various Croatian regions. In concert versions of the songs, an emphasized dynamics is often felt, with calmer intros that gradually grow into powerful choruses, which is particularly rewarding in a large hall like the Arena where sound and light can be built in layers. The audience at such performances usually reacts like a large choir, so even those who do not normally sing at concerts easily fall into the rhythm here, which affects the atmosphere and makes it specific compared to standard rock concerts. This effect of singing together is directly related to the interest in tickets, as many want to be part of exactly that image of the stands and the floor "breathing" in the same rhythm. If a good view or a place where you can more easily feel the sonic impact of the drums and guitar is important to you, buying tickets earlier can also mean a better choice of sector. For visitors coming from outside Zagreb, planning the evening naturally includes Accommodation near the venue, to avoid the rush and traveling late at night after the concert.

Repertoire and expected course of the evening

Although the exact setlist is generally not published in advance, Thompson's performances typically combine the greatest hits with cross-sections from different phases of his career, so a balance between energetic songs and more emotional moments can be expected. Titles like "Bojna Cavoglave", "Geni kameni", "Lijepa li si", "E, moj narode", "Bilo jednom u Hrvatskoj" or "Vjetar s Dinare" are often part of the concert backbone, but the order and selection can adapt to the space and the atmosphere of the audience. In the indoor format of Arena Zagreb, songs with gradation and large choruses work particularly well, because the sound system and visual production can follow the "wave" of the audience from the first to the last stand. The start is announced for 20:00, but in practice it is smart to arrive earlier for entry, checks, and finding your way through the sectors, especially if you want to find your place without stress before the first notes. Tickets for this concert disappear quickly, so buy your tickets on time via the button below, because the most sought-after zones usually "go" first when interest starts to grow in the final days. This ticket is valid for one day, so the entire experience fits into one concentrated, intense evening, which is the biggest draw of such a date at the end of the year for many.

Arena Zagreb as a stage: architecture, capacity, and atmosphere

Arena Zagreb has been synonymous with large indoor spectacles for years, and its capacity and infrastructure enable concert productions that would not be possible to the same extent in other spaces. The hall was built as part of the preparations for a major handball championship and was symbolically opened at the end of December 2008, which gives it a special connection with winter dates and large gatherings. In sports configurations, more than fifteen thousand spectators are recorded, and in concert setups, the possibility of accommodating about twenty thousand visitors is often mentioned, depending on the stage and the floor layout. That is precisely why the choice of tickets is important, because the difference between the floor and the stands is not just in distance, but also in the experience, from the physical energy of the crowd to a wider view of the light effects and video production. The Arena is located in the southern part of the city, in a zone that is practical for arrival by car, but also sufficiently connected so that visitors from different parts of Zagreb can arrive without major detours. If you are coming from another city, consider the Accommodation offers in Zagreb, because after the concert it is more pleasant to have a short trip to bed than to rush to late connections and parking lots.

How to find your way in and around the Arena

With concerts like this, the experience begins before the first chorus and only ends when the audience slowly disperses, so finding your way in and around the Arena is part of the overall experience. Sectors and entrances are clearly marked, but when a large number of people start moving at the same time, it is worth having a few minutes of reserve and not relying on arriving at the last moment. Tickets are checked at the entrances, and then you move towards the stands or the floor, depending on the type of ticket, so it is good to read in advance exactly what is written on your ticket for this event. In large halls, the difference in experience can be significant, so buying tickets on time is not just a matter of availability but also the possibility to choose the part of the hall that suits you best. Secure your tickets for this event immediately and plan your arrival so that you reach the hall early enough to find your seat, check where the exits and restrooms are, and catch the atmosphere before the start. If you want to combine the concert with a weekend trip or holidays in the city, Accommodation for event visitors near the Arena or well-connected neighborhoods can be key to a more relaxed rhythm.

Zagreb in December: a city context that enhances the experience

The end of December in Zagreb carries a special city pulse, with illuminated streets, a winter rhythm, and the feeling that the city is preparing for the end of the year, which gives the concert on December 27 additional symbolism. Many visitors take advantage of such a date to arrive earlier, walk through the city, feel the holiday atmosphere, and only then head towards the Arena, so the concert becomes the central part of the whole day. Zagreb's center and the wider city ring offer many opportunities for a killer pre-concert plan, but the most important thing is not to overdo the ambition and leave time for arrival and entry. In such a context, tickets also gain the value of the "event of the day", because they are not just a ticket for the hall but also a trigger for organizing trips, socializing, and a small winter journey. If you are coming from outside Zagreb, it is practical to consider Accommodation in the host city to extend the city experience even after the concert, without haste and night drives. Precisely therein lies the charm of such a date: one ticket, one evening, but potentially the whole day and the whole city as a backdrop.

Arrival and traffic: how to get there without nervousness

Arena Zagreb is located in a part of the city recognizable by large traffic flows and the proximity of important city roads, which facilitates arrival by car, but can also create crowds during peak hours before the start of the concert. The biggest mistake is to underestimate the movement of the mass: even when the route is clear, traffic and parking can slow down the arrival, so it is recommended to start earlier and count on delays, especially if you are coming from outside Zagreb. Those coming by public transport usually combine several lines and a short walk, so it is smart to check the current city conditions and not plan to arrive at the last minute, because then even the smallest interruption creates stress. Parking lots in the vicinity can fill up quickly, and after the concert, a wave of departure occurs, so it is useful to arrange a meeting point and a return plan in advance, especially if you are coming with a group. Keep your tickets and passes at hand, either on your mobile phone or printed, so that entry is fast, because slowing down at the entrances increases the crowd and reduces the enjoyment before the start. Buy tickets via the button below and immediately upon purchase make a small arrival plan, because that is the simplest recipe for the evening to remain in the sign of music, not logistics.

What to bring and how to plan the evening in the hall

Indoor concerts in winter have their advantages, but also a few details worth thinking about to make the experience pleasant from start to finish. Clothing should be layered, because it can be cold outside, and it warms up quickly in the hall due to the number of people and the energy of the concert, so it is practical to have something that is easily taken off or stored. The mobile phone and battery become almost a "second ticket", as many enter with digital tickets, take photos of the atmosphere, and coordinate with the crew, so it is useful to have a charger or at least a full battery before departure. If you want to maximally enjoy the sound, especially closer to the stage, earplugs are not a bad idea, as the volume at rock concerts can be high and the hall amplifies the impression. The ticket is valid for one day, but the plan for the evening can also include accommodation, so Accommodation near the Arena is a smart addition to the organization, especially if you want to just walk or take a short drive to bed after the concert. In all of this, buying tickets on time leaves more room to calmly arrange the details and arrive relaxed, ready for an evening in which every song is remembered.

Audience interest and rules that preserve the atmosphere

Thompson's concerts attract audiences of different ages, and the common thread is strong emotion and a sense of belonging to the moment, which is why such performances are often followed by the media and are logistically demanding. When thousands of people gather in one hall, the atmosphere also depends on the little things: following the instructions of the staff, patience in lines, and understanding that everyone is moving towards the same goal, but at a different pace. The best atmosphere is created when the audience maintains energy, but also moderation, because then the shared singing and the rhythm of the applause remain in the foreground. Precisely for this reason, arriving earlier and a good plan for sitting or standing is part of the culture of going to a concert, and not just a technical detail. Tickets and passes are not just a formality, but a "pass" into an event where safety and the flow of the entrance are important so that the concert starts at the right moment. If you want to enter without nervousness and immediately surrender to the music, buying tickets via the button below and arriving on time give you the most control over your own experience.

Tickets and tips for buying without stress

For large concerts, certain zones are most often sought after, either because of the proximity to the stage or because of a wider view of the entire production, so it happens that tickets in the most desirable sectors disappear before others. The indoor format usually offers a combination of stands and the floor, and the choice depends on whether you want a seated experience with an overview or the standing energy of the mass, which is a personal decision and part of the preparation for the evening. Since the ticket is valid for one day, the purchase is a clear investment in one evening, but it also determines your logistics, from the arrival time to where you will meet the crew and when to head towards the exit after the last song. When the date approaches, interest grows and the pressure to "catch" a good ticket increases, so it is reasonable to secure your tickets on time and avoid a situation in which you choose what is left. Secure your tickets for this event immediately and click the button below, because it is most pleasant to enter the day of the concert with tickets settled and thoughts directed towards the music, not the search. And if you are coming from outside Zagreb, it is smart to simultaneously look at Accommodation for the concert evening so that everything is rounded off in one plan.

An evening to remember in the city's largest hall

The Marko Perkovic - Thompson concert at Arena Zagreb carries the character of a large indoor event that is not reduced only to a set of songs, but to an atmosphere in which the audience becomes the main instrument. In such an environment, the lights, the sound system, and the rhythm of the mass work together, and every song gets extra weight because it is shared by thousands of people at the same moment. The date at the end of the year gives the evening a special charge, as if one chapter is closing through music and entering a new one, which remains as a personal memory for many that they link to the city, the company, and the songs that follow the years. Whoever wants to fully take advantage of this event can combine it with a short stay in the city, so Accommodation for visitors in Zagreb is a good addition to the plan, especially if you want to end the evening peacefully without haste after the concert. Tickets for this concert disappear quickly, so buy your tickets on time via the button below and surrender to an experience that is most complete in the indoor format when you are inside, in your place, before the first choruses start.

Culture & events desk

The editorial team for arts, music and events brings together journalists and volunteers who have spent years living alongside stages, clubs, festivals and all those spaces where art and audience meet. Our writing comes from long-standing journalistic experience and genuine involvement in cultural life: from endless evenings in concert halls, from conversations with musicians before and after performances, from improvised press corners at festivals, from premieres that end with long discussions in theatre corridors, but also from small, intimate events that attract only a handful of curious people yet remain engraved in their memory for a lifetime.

In our newsroom write people who know what a stage looks like when the lights go out, how the audience breathes while waiting for the first note, and what happens behind the curtain while instruments or microphones are still being adjusted. Many of us have spent years standing on stage ourselves, participating in programme organisation, volunteering at festivals or helping artist friends present their projects. This experience from both sides of the stage gives us the ability to view events not merely as items in a calendar, but as living encounters between creators and audiences.

Our stories do not stop at who performed and how many people attended. We are interested in the processes that precede every appearance before the public: how the idea for a concert or festival is born, what it takes for a comedy to reach its audience, how much time is spent preparing an exhibition or a multimedia project. In our texts we try to convey the atmosphere of the space, the energy of the performers and the mood of the audience, as well as the context in which all this happens – why a certain performance is important, how it fits into the broader music or art scene, and what remains after the venue empties.

The editorial team for arts, music and events builds its credibility on persistence and long-term work. Behind us are decades of writing, editing, talking with artists and observing how scenes change, how some styles come to the forefront while others retreat into the background. This experience helps us distinguish fleeting hype from events that truly push boundaries and leave a mark. When we give something space, we strive to explain why we believe it deserves attention, and when we are critical, we explain our reasons, aware of the effort behind every project.

Our task is simple and demanding at the same time: to be reliable witnesses of cultural and entertainment life, to write honestly toward the audience and honestly toward performers. We do not deal in generic praise; we aim to precisely describe what we see and hear, knowing that every text may be someone’s first encounter with a certain band, festival, comedian or artist. The editorial team for arts, music and events therefore exists as a place where all these encounters are recorded, interpreted and passed on – humanly, clearly and with respect for the very reason it exists at all: the live, real event in front of a real audience.
