Practical Information

The Arms Square is a pedestrian zone within the walls of the Old Town; the shortest way to it leads from the waterfront, through the main gate – the Sea Gate. On the same days, New Year's concerts are also taking place in Tivat (Pine) and Herceg Novi (Nikola Đurković Square), so festive evenings in Boka can be combined.
