Serbian EXIT festival confirmed to happen this summer!
Thanks to Serbia’s very successful campaign of mass vaccination, Novi Sad Mayor, Miloš Vučević, confirmed that EXIT festival 2021 can happen safely this summer. This long-awaited statement means that the 20th anniversary of the festival will be celebrated according to the original plans, from 8th to 11th July, at the Petrovaradin Fortress.
Serbia is currently one of the leading European countries when it comes to mass vaccination, with highest percentage of people who have had both shots (in Europe). Serbia has also been praised as the only country in the world where its citizens can choose between the different vaccine manufacturers from around the world and it’s the only country where non-residents can apply for vaccination.
All of this will enable the grand celebration of EXIT festival’s 20th anniversary to take place from 8th till the 11th July 2021. The venue is once again the world-famous Petrovaradin Fortress, one of the largest medieval fortresses in Europe with a unique view of the river Danube and city of Novi Sad.
“We are very excited about this news and the opportunity to finally celebrate life together with our audience from the whole world! Considering all the difficulties we have been facing for over a year, we already feel that the Big bang of positive energy will create new dimension of the festival experience and make this year’s EXIT unique in the history of the festival. However, we must remain responsible in the coming months and we’re calling for all of our visitors who have the opportunity to get vaccinated before the festival, as no matter what, the health and safety of all visitors, artists and the crew is our top priority,” says founder and CEO of the EXIT festival, Dušan Kovačević.
An all-star line-up with major headliners including David Guetta, DJ Snake, Tyga, Eric Prydz b2b Four Tet, Paul Kalkbrenner, Nina Kraviz, Boris Brejcha, Sheck Wes, Solomun, Paul van Dyk, Sepultura, Metronomy, Honey Dijon and many others. New acts confirmed for the line up, who will find their place over 40 stages and zones all over the fortress, will be revealed next week.
Entry to the festival will be allowed to all those who have been vaccinated and those with antibodies. To make the festival accessible to all, everyone else will be able to take a rapid antigen test, which will be provided at low prices, in a specially made area near the festival gates. Tourists can already travel to Serbia with a negative PCR test and it is expected that testing to enter the country will no longer be a requirement by June.
