Thanks, Luka, Just came to announce it: http://www.muzika.hr/clanak/23540/najav ... agreb.aspx

Elizabeth, the tickets are little pricy for Croatia, and especially for ARENA. Other shows at Arena (Beyonce) were 200 kunas. Somebody will make good money. I never was there so I don't know what are the differences in seats and areas. Also, a sthere's 10,000 seats, I guess that the usual seating plan doesn't count.

LEGENDARY COHEN IN CROATIA
Leonard Cohen to perform in Zagreb ’Arena’
One of the greatest artists of our time and an international music veteran will perform in Zagreb this March.

One of the most influential musicians and songwriters of our time, Leonard Cohen, will perform at a Zagreb Arena on March 15, 2010. For the first time in over five decades of his successful career, Cohen will come closer to the fans in Croatia.

Cohen, who is also called ‘king of sorrow’, is the author of many memorable songs whose music style includes folk music, pop and jazz. This Canadian songwriter and poet, author of 11 albums and numerous literary works, began to write in 1951 and published his first collection of poems in 1956. As the years passed, Cohen became a world famous and recognized musician, while his literary work remained somewhat overshadowed by his extraordinary music career.

With Lufthansa you can get even cheaper tickets if you book immediately.

Also from London-Luton, I travelled so to RAH show, with Wizzair.

It's too early now, but I hope that Jarkko will come, and then we can make a serious meet-up and sight-seeing, as Zagreb (the Croatian team) will try to get one of the next Leonard Cohen events.
