AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoCroatia in the spotlight (World Cup culture): As England kick off against Croatia, the build-up is spilling into fashion and identity—Mackage has launched Croatia’s official off-field World Cup capsule, worn by the squad on travel and media days, while a separate feature spotlights how Modrić’s long career and family life sit behind the team’s enduring “defy the odds” narrative. Archaeology & heritage: Cavtat archaeologists report a rare, intact late antique sarcophagus (sealed since antiquity) uncovered in the Epidaur necropolis, a major find for Croatia’s archaeological record. Slavonia travel (lifestyle): Slavonski Brod is being pitched as a continental alternative, with Tamburica House and Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić House leading a heritage-and-gastronomy itinerary. Tourism debate: A travel piece argues for smarter summer choices—less overtourism pressure by looking beyond Dubrovnik’s crowds and spending locally. Soccer as society: Coverage also frames the World Cup as more than sport, from political critiques of “sportswashing” to stories of fans and rituals that turn matches into cultural events.
