ECHOES OF THE ŠABAC FAIR

Each autumn, the Sabac Fair transforms this historic Serbian town into a vibrant tapestry of tradition, commerce, and celebration. Nestled along the banks of the Sava River, the fair—dating back over 180 years—stands as a living testament to the region’s enduring spirit. Stalls brim with local delicacies, handmade crafts, and colorful textiles, while the lively hum of bartering fills the air. Farmers proudly showcase their harvests, from golden corn to fragrant plums destined for the region’s famed rakija. Amid the bustle, echoes of folk music and the laughter of children riding carnival attractions remind visitors that the Sabac Fair is more than a marketplace—it’s a cherished gathering where culture, community, and history come alive.
