04 / The venue

A working stone quarry, on the sea.

MERIDIAN takes over Katarina Bay — a former Austro-Hungarian coastal fort and limestone quarry on the tip of the Istrian peninsula, ten minutes by boat from Pula.

1 MAIN 2 QUARRY 3 TERRACE CAMPING HARBOUR BEACH
Katarina Bay · Pula, HR 44.87°N 13.81°E

Everything within a ten-minute walk.

No shuttles between stages, no fields the size of an airport. The whole site is walkable in minutes, from the amphitheatre carved into the rock to the ambient terrace on the cliff edge.

Getting there

Fly to Pula (PUY), 15 min transfer. Free shuttle boat runs from the harbour every 20 minutes.

Camping

On-site pitches, boutique bell tents and a car-park zone. Hot showers, lockers and 24h security.

Food & drink

Twelve independent kitchens, an Istrian wine bar and fresh seafood from the harbour. Free water refills.

Hours

Site opens 14:00 daily. Main stages run to 04:00; the Quarry goes until sunrise, roughly 06:00.

05 / Good to know

Before you go.

Is the festival cashless?
Yes. Your wristband is linked to a top-up account for all bars, food stalls and merch. Load credit in the app or at on-site points; unused balance is refunded within 14 days.
What is the minimum age?
MERIDIAN is strictly 18+. Bring government-issued photo ID matching your ticket — you will be asked for it at the harbour gate and again on site.
Can I get a refund or resell my pass?
Passes are fully refundable until July 31, 2026. After that, use the official resale exchange to transfer your pass to another fan at face value — no third-party resellers are honoured at the gate.
Is the site accessible?
The main routes and amphitheatre are step-free with raised viewing platforms. The Quarry involves uneven stone paths. Email access@meridian.fm and our team will plan your visit and companion tickets.
What about the weather?
Late August on the Adriatic averages 28°C by day and a mild 20°C at night. The event runs rain or shine — bring sun protection, water shoes for the rocks and a light layer for sunrise sets.

Four nights. One horizon.

Phase 2 passes are moving fast — the last edition sold out six weeks before gates. Lock yours in before prices rise on July 20.
