“EXIT has always had a huge number of loyal fans, but we were overwhelmed by the very high percentage of those who decided to keep the ticket for the big celebration of the 20th anniversary of the festival next year. We are hugely grateful to the audience for love and support and this also gives us confidence to keep on booking new acts and create an awesome line-up for the 2021 edition and give fans something to look forward to.” -Dusan Kovacevic, Founder & CEO, EXIT

Along with the above mentioned headliners, 999999999 live, Juliana Huxtable, Francois X, Onyvaa live, Bokee, Monosaccharide, as well as VTSS b2b SPFDJ, will be arriving to the Fortress next summer to perform on the three biggest stages at EXIT – the Main Stage, the Dance Arena and the No Sleep Novi Sad.

The new group of performers for EXIT 2021 is led by exciting key players of the world electronic and trap scene. The young New York rapper Sheck Wes, whose “Mo Bamba” is considered one of the biggest hip-hop hits of the last few years, will be arriving to Serbia for the first time. Sheck’s talent was recognized by Travis Scott and Kanye West, who signed his releases, and he already has collaborations with hip hop stars like DJ Snake, 21 Savage, Lil Pump, Offset and Gucci Mane.  Honey Dijon, born and raised in Chicago, the home of house music, which is deeply rooted in her style, will also be performing for the first time at the Festival’s 20th anniversary celebration. After numerous performances in some of the most famous clubs around the world, this exceptional musician, producer, fashion icon and activist will be bringing her unique sound to the Petrovaradin Fortress. She will be joined by Nina Kraviz, the techno girl who has, on several occasions, closed the EXIT Festival and the famous mts Dance Arena and who recently had the unique opportunity to record a live set on top of Mount Olympus in Greece, which is available on her online platforms.  Paul Kalkbrenner, whose 2019 EXIT set was voted one of the best from that summer, has also confirmed his arrival. His biggest hit, “Sky and Sand”, has spent as many as 129 weeks on the German charts, and thus found itself at the top of the official chart of the Day of the German Unity, which included hits from the previous 30 years. On his European solo tour in 2019, Kalkbrenner sold more than 100,000 tickets, which brought him closer to the status enjoyed by the rock stars.
