Mercedes are coming to Dubrovnik. The luxury German car brand Mercedes are to hold global training for their representatives in Dubrovnik from early February to mid-April. The hosts for this prestigious event are the Sun Gardens, Dubrovnik resort with their Radisson hotel and the hotel chain Valamar at their newly renovated Valamar Dubrovnik President.

Preparations are well underway for this event and representatives from Valamar have stated that “a considerable part of their accommodation will be almost full during the Mercedes training.” During the global training for Mercedes representatives it is expected that more than 15,000 agents from all over the world will participate. During the winter months when the city struggles to attract visitors the influx of Mercedes agents will have a financial impact. Estimates in the media suggest that the event will add an extra 50,000 overnight stays during the winter.

The luxury Mercedes have started to arrive in trucks outside of the Valamar Dubrovnik President and according to sources the agents will have the chance to test drive the latest models around Dubrovnik. It is also rumoured that Mercedes will hold an “open day” at which guests will have the opportunity to sit behind the wheel of these luxury cars.
