Underworld, Sasha, Fatboy Slim to headline Serbia's Exit Festival in July

The State of Exit is Eastern Europe’s premier festival and in 2005 it looks set to be even bigger. Featuring beach parties and lazy summer days camping by the Danube river, enormous soundsystems and hot air ballooning by night, the beautiful Adriatic weather, or even the diverse artistic and historic local culture; EXIT takes place in the historic Petrovaradin Fortress, built high on the banks of the River Danube, offering stunning views over the city of Novi  Sad. It is an ancient fortress site originally occupied by the Romans, and re-built by the Austro Hungarian Empire to defend against the Turks in the 17th Century. The Fortress site houses 18 performance arenas including the Main Stage and Dance Stage. There’s also an extreme sports arena, a technology zone, an NGO zone, and open air Cinema. Capacity will be limited to 55,000 ticket holders per day in 2005.

This year, around 600 performances will take place within the mutli venue castle complex, an area that covers about three square kilometres – an eclectic selection headlined by some of the biggest live bands and dance acts from genres such as hip-hop, house, drum and bass, African, reggae and Latin. Headliners will include Underworld, Fatboy Slim, Dave Clarke and Sasha. EXIT runs from July 7 to 10.
