Municipalities in Croatia have been conducting various community events and ceremonial sessions to mark their respective municipal days.

In Podravske Sesvete, celebrations included a literary evening, traditional sports, and a local product fair. Mayor Marko Derežić noted that while European and national funds support development, high co-financing requirements place pressure on local budgets.

In Dugopolje, preparations focused on a humanitarian futsal tournament intended to raise funds for medical treatment in Germany for a man from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Meanwhile, in Sukošan, officials marked both Municipal Day and Defense Day, highlighting infrastructure projects such as a 6.3 million euro expansion of the local primary school supported by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan.
