“Novi Sad Open” International Winter Petanque Tournament

The “Novi Sad Open” brings together the finest domestic and international competitors, confirming its status as the most significant winter petanque tournament in the entire region. Over three days of competition, the audience will have the opportunity to watch top-tier matches in a sport that uniquely combines precision, strategy, and fair play. The programme includes competitions in singles, doubles, and triples, offering visitors a chance to challenge their own preconceptions about petanque and discover the skills that make this sport a unique blend of tactics and precision.
The tournament aims to promote petanque as a sport accessible to all generations and genders, while strengthening international cooperation and fostering both recreational and competitive sports in Novi Sad and Serbia. The event also contributes to the popularisation of Novi Sad as a city that actively invests in sports infrastructure and the organisation of major sporting events, further justifying its prestigious title as a European City of Sport. The tournament significantly enhances the city’s international visibility, promotes sports-recreational tourism, and reinforces the image of Novi Sad as an open, modern, and active regional centre.
