In the heart of southern Serbia, where the Veternica river lazily meanders through a fertile valley, Leskovac transforms into a global capital of flavor at the end of August. The 35th Roštiljijada (Grill Festival), a cultural phenomenon that attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors, is not just a food festival—it's a celebration of tradition, hospitality, and community. As the city buzzes with the aroma of barbecue, the sound of trumpets, and the chatter of cheerful guests, a quiet force ensures everything runs smoothly: Novi Taxi 016. As a key partner of the event, this company is not just a transporter—it is the pulse of Leskovac, a bridge connecting visitors to the magic of Roštiljijada.

The Heart of the Festival: Široka Čaršija and a Symphony of Tastes

Roštiljijada is more than an event—it's a living organism. On Široka Čaršija, the festival's epicenter, grill masters—true virtuosos of their craft—flip juicy pljeskavicas (burgers) and ćevapi (sausages), while the smell of smoke mingles with the sounds of trumpet orchestras and songs from the main stage. This seven-day spectacle, which draws up to half a million people, celebrates the intangible heritage of Leskovac: authentic barbecue, a recipe generations old, and a spirit of community that makes this city unique.

But behind this gastronomic symphony lies complex logistics. Closed streets, crowds, and a huge number of visitors demand flawless planning. This is where Novi Taxi 016 steps in, with drivers who, like silent heroes, ensure every guest arrives on time, safely, and with a smile.
