Get your ticket at EXIT Festival’s website, starting from 87€ for regular and 300€ for VIP GOLD. 

The iconic Petrovaradin Fortress is widely considered one of the best festival venues in the world. It is a venue unlike any other and each year EXIT Festival pulls out all of the production stops. This year the line-up is bigger than ever with a rich hip-hop offering as well as some of the electric dance world’s biggest names.

The gods of rap, as the legendary Wu-Tang Clan are known, will headline a grand celebration of 50 years of hip-hop at the EXIT Festival! Their debut release “Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)” is considered one of the most influential albums ever, which is why this record will celebrate its 30th birthday in Novi Sad.

“We are so proud that Wu-Tang Clan, the biggest rap group of all time and The Prodigy, who defined the electro-punk genre, are part of this year’s EXIT Festival lineup. Along with Skrillex, Keinemusic, CamelPhat, Indira Paganotto, and many more surprises yet to come, EXIT Festival will be one of the main festival hotspots this summer,” says EXIT Festival founder and CEO Dušan Kovačević.

Drum’n’bass icons Chase & Status also play. They are one of the most notorious acts in the scene with a raucous live show, legendary Ibiza residencies and timeless RTRN II JUNGLE album all making them stars. Also playing is Stockholm producer and DJ Alesso who didn’t take long to achieve global fame with his second single, “Calling (Losing My Mind)“ with One Republic and Swedish House Mafia reaching the top of Billboard’s Hot Dance Club Songs list.
