Taking place from Thursday 12th – Sunday 15th July, in the magical Petrovaradin Fortress overlooking the river Danube, EXIT continues to deliver the most adventurous and value for money festival experience, with a diverse and cutting edge line up, cheap food and drink onsite and the best campsite entertainment whilst bathing in the hot Balkan sunshine. With over 600 artists, peforming on 20 stages connected by cobbled streets, ramparts and tunnels - a walk through the mystical fortress is like a trip through a magical wonderland.

With more entertainment, easier and cheaper travel options, unique location, stunning weather and an atmosphere unlike any other festival, EXIT offers a 4 day extravaganza costing much less than a UK festival ticket, giving the festival goer more value for money. 




FUSION STAGE:
The Fusion stage has been growing in popularity over the years with its eclectic range of acts from the most eminent names of Rock, Pop and Alternative domestic and regional scene, as well as many well-known foreign acts. Some of the newly announced acts include; Bosnian Rapper Edo Maakja, Polish Electro Pop trio Kamp!, Serbian cult band Block Out, Russian Indie Pop quartet Pompeya, Electro music in an Indie way with Twisted Piglet and Serbian band Hype! on Thursday.

Death By Chocolate will perform on the same night as well as the most fascinating vocal of the new Serbian scene, Ivana Smolović, as a part of the new super-talented Indie act IKA. A perfect night will be complete with the performance of IN-THE-GO, heroes of the seaside Alternative Indie Rock from Split, Croatia.

The last day of the festival will now include the ten-piece New Zealand act Batucada Sound Machine with their mixture of Samba, Funk, Hip-hop and Soul who will play alongside icons of the former Yugoslavia’s bad boys – Split’s rappers Dječaci, and the Slovenian Dandelion Children, known for their specific genre which blends Punk, Funk, Country, Blues, Reggae and Progressive Rock. The domestic support comes from some of the most popular bands - Zemlja gruva, and the legendary Eyesburn.
