Welcome to the Balkan state of mind, an unforgettable Activity Week experience where Belgrade becomes your gateway through time.

This project is more than just discovering a city, it is about feeling the different colors, emotions and eras that shaped Belgrade into the vibrant place it is today. Through a journey across decades, participants will explore the hidden spirit of Belgrade, from old bohemian streets, traditional kafanas and timeless music to the fast rhythm and energy of modern Belgrade.

Every day brings a new chapter of the city’s story. You will relive the atmosphere of past generations, uncover historical landmarks, experience authentic Serbian culture and see how Belgrade transformed through time while never losing its soul. Through interactive activities, themed events and unforgettable nights, the city itself becomes a living time machine.

But Belgrade is not only about history, it is about the feeling you get while walking through its streets at night, the sound of live music echoing from kafanas, spontaneous adventures with new people, late-night conversations, laughter, tradition, chaos and energy that somehow all exist together in perfect harmony.

Balkan state of mind is designed for everyone who wants to experience Belgrade beyond the ordinary tourist perspective. It is for those who want to feel the city, not just visit it. Because every era leaves its color. And every corner of Belgrade tells a story.

So come and become a part of Belgrade’s story and let the city leave a piece of itself in you.
