Mediterranean Cup in Majorette Sports

Novigrad is set to dazzle this autumn as it hosts the 9th Mediterranean Majorette Cup, a spectacular international competition taking place from 26 to 28 September. For the third time, this charming seaside town will welcome talented majorettes of all ages, ready to impress not only with their dazzling performances in the Sports Hall, but also with a colourful street parade through the Old Town and a lively dance show on the Veliki trg square behind the bell tower, scheduled for Friday, 26 September, at 6:30 p.m.

Around 750 majorettes from eight countries, accompanied by their coaches, teams and parents, are expected to descend on Novigrad. They will compete in three age categories – cadets, juniors and seniors – across solo, duo/trio, mini and large formations, as well as parade routines. Performances will feature an exciting array of props including batons, pom-poms, baton flags, flags and even two or three different props combined with full stage sets, ensuring a vibrant spectacle of movement and colour. Over the course of the event, audiences can look forward to around 200 choreographies, with up to 100 performances each day.

A highlight of the weekend will be the traditional majorette dance competition, where the best team will be awarded the coveted Novigrad Cup 2025. This special contest takes place on Saturday morning, 27 September, with prizes for the most outstanding parade and large baton formations to be presented personally by Mayor Anteo Milos.
