Visualia Festival is a cultural event and a regular part of a year-long cultural programme designed and implemented by Sonitus Association.
Festival started its tradition in 2013, with a sustainable presentation of modern works in the field of audiovisual art the goal of which is to cancel the borders between historical and modern achievements and to present the results of such fusion through different frameworks that will offer unforgettable memories, emotions and new experience to visitors. Later, Visualia’s potential and success resulted in cooperation and partnership with Tourism Office Pula as well as with other associations and organization at a local and international level. In such way, the Festival strengthened its business strategy it adheres to even today.
Visualia’s programme consists of goals focused on: investment and research of new media and modern technology by organising events, educations and other activities, creation of its own artistic production based on research results and distribution, which serves to promote audiovisual, visual and performative arts and create new cultural trends.
Considering that the number of visitors rapidly grows, Visualia aims to stand equally proud with similar world-renowned festivals. It is noteworthy that Visualia encourages home production of young creative people, it is open to new forms of artistic expression and is always eager to embrace new technological challenges.

The organizers thank the patrons without whose trust and participation the realization of the festival would not be possible:
City of Pula
County of Istria
Istria Tourism Office
Archaeological Museum of Istria

A huge thanks to all friends, enthusiasts, creative minds, sponsors and volunteers who selflessly assisted from the earliest beginnings and continued to be a major boost to the achievement of all our goals.

Visualia Festival kulturna je manifestacija i redovni dio cjelogodišnjega kulturnog programa zajednice koji je osmislila i koji provodi udruga Sonitus.
Festival je svoju tradiciju započeo 2013. godina kao održivo prezentiranje modernih radova na području audiovizualne umjetnosti kojima je cilj izbrisati granice između povijesnih i modernih dostignuća te prikazati rezultate takve fuzije kroz drugačije okvire koji će posjetiteljima pružiti nezaboravne doživljaje, emocije i nova iskustva. Potencijal i uspješnost Visualie doveli su do razvoja suradnje i partnerstva s Turističkom zajednicom grada Pule, kao i s drugim udrugama i organizacijama na lokalnoj i međunarodnoj razini. Time je Festival ojačao svoju poslovnu strategiju koju održava i danas.
