After nine years, the Pula Arena is preparing to welcome back one of the most successful musicians of our time within its millennia-old walls. Sting, winner of 17 Grammy Awards, has added another concert in Croatia to the list of his acclaimed “Sting 3.0” World Tour, which will take place on August 1, 2026, at the Arena in Pula as part of the Adria Summer Festival, organized by Live Nation, Cherrytree Music Company, Adria Events and NuCoast Concerts. Tickets go on sale on Monday, December 15, via Eventim and Entrio.

Together with Dominic Miller, the virtuoso guitarist and longtime collaborator, and Chris Maas, the dynamic drummer, Sting will perform his greatest hits as well as rarely played songs from his timeless discography for the audience in the Arena. The “Sting 3.0” world tour has been selling out shows across the globe and continues to earn critical acclaim. The Oakland Press highlights it as an evening of world-class performances that will be remembered for a long time, while USA Today writes that Sting combines charisma, intellect and musical sophistication. Consequence notes that Sting remains one of the greatest bassists of all time and a top-tier performer with a powerful voice, and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution praises his masterful musicianship and impressive stage presence.

Known for his innovative solo work, songwriting, and role as the frontman of the iconic band The Police, Sting has continuously pushed the boundaries of musical creativity throughout his rich and impressive career. The “STING 3.0” tour represents a new, dynamic chapter in which Sting performs selected songs from his extensive catalogue in a powerful three-piece band format. This fresh energy also inspired his new single, “I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart)”, arranged by four-time Grammy Award winner Robert Orton.

Alongside the single, the new live album “STING 3.0 LIVE” has also been released, available digitally, on CD, and on 180-gram vinyl. Recorded during the world tour of the same name, the album features a selection of Sting’s greatest hits, including the first-ever live version of “Be Still My Beating Heart”. The digital edition contains a total of ten songs, including a live performance of the 1987 classic “Fragile”, which was recently reinterpreted by a children’s choir in the Netflix mini-series “Adolescence.”
