For the past decade, the Croatian city of Vukovar has traditionally celebrated Valentine’s Day with a dinner and dance function for couples who have been married for 50 years or more.
Taking into account the epidemiological situation, the City of Vukovar decided for the 11th year to find a different way to continue this beautiful tradition.
In order to mark Valentine’s Day, married couples in Vukovar who have been together for 50 years or more, were presented with a gift voucher for lunch or dinner, which they can use until the end of February.
