The New Year’s celebrations passed without any major incidents according to information from the city’s emergency services. In spite of the fact that thousands of people celebrated the passing of 2018 and the New Year in Dubrovnik, including around 5,000 foreign tourists, the night passed relatively peacefully.

The fire-brigade reported that there were two smaller fires, one in a restaurant kitchen and one fire in grassland, during the night. And from the Dubrovnik Police and the Dubrovnik General Hospital they reported that there was one case of a patient needing stiches and one person who was treated due to excessive alcohol consumption.
