Gate-side tech stop in T1 from 6am daily
On the T1 departures side at Zagreb Franjo Tuđman Airport, SonusArt - Elektronics Shop keeps its shutters up from 6am to 10pm, which covers almost all morning and evening departures. It’s a straight electronics shop: headphones, small speakers, chargers, cables, and a mix of travel adapters sized for EU plugs. Think last-minute audio gear and phone essentials rather than big-ticket laptops or cameras.
Pricing runs at typical airport levels, with basics like USB-C or Lightning cables and EU plug adapters noticeably higher than in central Zagreb, but still reasonable compared to in-flight buy-on-board. The store focuses on recognizable consumer brands for headphones and earbuds, so you’re not gambling on mystery gear right before a flight. Inventory leans portable: Bluetooth speakers that fit a backpack, power banks small enough to clear security rules, and a few mid-range over-ear headphones for longer trips.
Because T1 isn’t huge, SonusArt is easy to reach after security, and it’s one of the few spots in the terminal that reliably stocks spare chargers all day. If your phone cable dies at 8pm before a late departure, this is realistically your main option. Staff typically speak English and can match plugs and voltages to your destination if you’re unsure about EU versus UK or US-style connectors.
Tip: If you know you need a power bank, buy it here before boarding; there’s no guarantee your airline or gate kiosk sells one that meets cabin rules and has enough capacity for a long-haul connection.
