Croatian National Theatre to Zagreb's Cathedral where Assistant Bishop
Juraj Jezerinac said a Mass for them.
On Saturday night, troupes performed dances and songs of all parts
of Croatia in the Vatroslav Lisinski concert hall in the capital.
The festival ends on Sunday afternoon when folk groups perform
their programme at Zrinjevac, the downtown Zagreb. Later on the 'Lado'
troupe and the Croatian Television tamburica orchestra will hold a
