The Venue
The Yugoslav Drama Theatre (Kralja Milana 50) was founded in 1948. An integral part of serbian theatre history and a Belgrade cultural landmark, it has been brilliantly renovated following a fire in 1997.
This year we’re teaming up with Belgrade Design Week, an international design festival, which gathers global leaders in the fields of architecture, design, branding, advertising, culture, publishing, media and communications. Once a year Belgrade takes centre stage in the world of design with an international conference, creative workshops, master-classes, exhibitions and promotions.
The European Design Awards 2013 Ceremony will take place on the penultimate day of the festival, Saturday June 8.
We will be announcing more details soon. Stay tuned!
Belgrade is the capital city of Serbia and has a population of around 1.7 million. The city lies on two international waterways, at the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers, which surround it on three sides. But that’s not all these rivers have to offer! During the summer there are plenty of clubs in heaving barges on both rivers, as Belgrade transforms into a party town. But more on that when we announce the European Design post-ceremony party!

Website
Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport is the primary international airport serving Belgrade, Serbia. Previously known as Belgrade International Airport, it was renamed in 2006 in honour of Serbian scientist and inventor Nikola Tesla. The airport is situated 12 km west of central Belgrade. It is the international and domestic hub for JAT Airways, the national flag carrier and largest airline of Serbia, as well as one of the hubs for low cost airline Wizz Air. In total, there are approximately 20 airlines servicing the airport, with direct flights to most European capitals.
AIRPORT SHUTTLE
JAT Airways runs a bus service between the airport and its city terminal at Hotel Slavija (Slavija square) in the city centre. The bus leaves the airport every hour on the hour between 07:00 and 22:00 taking approximately 30 minutes to reach the centre of Belgrade. The bus also stops at Fontana in Novi Beograd and at the central railway station. One way fare is 200 dinars (c. 2 euros) and can be paid directly to the bus driver. On the way back, the bus shuttle leaves from the city terminal at Slavija hotel every hour on the hour between 05:00 and 21:00.
PUBLIC BUS
Public bus line 72 departs from the airport every 30 minutes and will take you through several parts of Belgrade before arriving at its final stop near the Zeleni Venac green market in the city centre. The bus ticket costs 45 dinars (~0.50 euro) if bought at a newspaper stand, or 80 dinars if bought from the bus driver. Although cheaper, this is probably not the best option for first time visitors to Belgrade, unless you have a map of Belgrade with you or are the adventurous type of traveller.
TAXI
Until December 2010 the taxi drivers operating from the Belgrade Airport were heavily overcharging their clients. In order to stop this practice, the Belgrade government has introduced the following mechanism for getting a taxi at the arrivals hall of the Belgrade airport:
Belgrade’s main railway station, built between 1882 and 1885, offers rail connections to and from a number of major central European and Balkan cities. It’s only a fifteen minute walk from the city centre and is also serviced by tram line No 2.
