The City of Dubrovnik will once again take part in the Earth Hour initiative organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). On Saturday, March 22, from 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM, the lights on Stradun, as well as the northern and western sections of the city walls—from Revelin to Pile and Fort Bokar—will be switched off.

Earth Hour is a perfect opportunity to show solidarity and care for both the planet and each other. The city encourages all residents, businesses, and individuals to join the initiative by turning off lights in their homes and workplaces.

Originally launched in Sydney in 2007 as a symbolic lights-out event, Earth Hour is now observed in over 180 countries and territories. Croatia joined the movement in 2009, with an increasing number of cities participating each year.
