About the event

This festival celebrates the handcart, an indispensable iron “brand” of this island. It honors the unbreakable bond between islanders and their beloved handcarts. On this special evening, everyone is invited to bring their handcarts in their most festive and creative attire, as we select the most beautiful one of all. But that’s not all—this is also the night when we crown the most skilled “karijolaš,” the master of maneuvering their metal companion through our special obstacle course. There are countless ways to celebrate the handcart and its many uses. Be part of this unique tradition, bring your handcart, become a true karijolaš, and gift yourself an unforgettable experience where Man and Handcart become One!

EXPERIENCE

The sovereign and versatile queen of Vrgada has always been Her Majesty – the Handcart. More than just a trusty transport tool, she is the guardian of our heritage and island’s ecology.
