Itinerary
Day 1
Evening party schedule: meet at Jimmy Bar, cruise the Adriatic with onboard DJ and shots, then VIP after‑party in central Split.
Pre‑party meet-up at Jimmy Bar (Obala Lazareta 3)
Gather at the meeting point for a short pre‑party and check‑in. Staff will confirm tickets, distribute wristbands, and brief the group before boarding.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 10–15 minutes before the meeting time to complete check-in and receive any wristbands or instructions.
- Bring valid photo ID (passport or EU ID) — it will be checked both for the cruise and later for club entry.
- Jimmy Bar is on the Riva promenade (Obala Lazareta). If you are coming from Diocletian's Palace, it's an easy 5–10 minute walk along the waterfront.
Night Boat Party on the Adriatic (boarding from the Riva area)
Board the party boat shortly after the pre‑party. Dance on deck with a live DJ while cruising the Split waterfront and nearby coast. Free shots and event photography are provided at venues during the cruise.

Tips from local experts:

- No outside alcohol is permitted on board; follow crew instructions for safety and boarding procedures.
VIP After‑Party (central Split / Diocletian's Palace area)
After disembarking, proceed to the official after‑party venue in central Split where the group has priority entry. The exact club is selected by the operator and will be communicated during check‑in.
Tips from local experts:
- Keep your wristband or entry confirmation visible for priority access at the club door.
- Expect a short 10–20 minute walk from the Riva to the after‑party area; taxis and local rideshares are available nearby if needed.

Split After Dark: Night Boat Party with DJ, Free Shots & After-Party
Why this experience
A night boat party on the Adriatic is how Split's friends crew ends a weekend—you'll get the same energy. The boat leaves the waterfront after sunset, picks up speed once you're out of the harbor, and by the time the DJ takes over, you're dancing under the stars with the coast disappearing behind you. Free shots flow, the after-party crew stays on for the final hour, and you'll return to the waterfront feeling like you actually lived in Split rather than just visited it.
