Sažetak
A phenomenon that denoted the people of Zagreb's holy-day calendar in continuity from the Middle-Ages (the 13th and 14th centuries) right up to the 1920s is dealt with in this paper. In question are the three great annual fairs: Mark's Fair, organised in April ; Margaret's in July, and Royal Fair in August. Along with their primary trading and business purpose, these fairs were also an occasion for the leisure and entertainment of both local population and the numerous participants and visitors from throughout the country and from abroad. As a meeting-place of people from diverse social levels, the fairs were characterised by robust liveliness and a picturesque scenario.
