EXIT Festival Concludes The Summer Season With 3 Successful Events With 225,000 Visitors and Opens Ticket Sales for 2022
EXIT in Serbia, Sunland in Bulgaria and Sea Dance in Montenegro - all organized by the EXIT team - were visited by a total 225,000 people this summer, reigniting the festival scene of Europe and giving the opportunity to performers like David Guetta, Paul Kalkbrenner, Charlotte de Witte, Nina Kraviz, Solomon and many more to perform in front of bigger crowds for a first time after a long compulsory break. EXIT is already planning next year's event as ticket sales for the festival start this Friday.
The Festival was also marked by a strong international line-up - during the four days of the festival with performances from David Guetta, Nina Kraviz, DJ Snake, Paul Kalkbrenner, Solomun, Sabaton, Amelie Lens, Robin Schulz, Charlotte de Witte, Asaf Avidan, Artbat, and many others. The most devoted festival fans, whose passion for live music was stronger than all the uncertainties and restrictions, came to EXIT from over 70 countries around the world. Their great desire united with the same need of performers, which created such a strong energy that almost all performers assessed that their performance at this year's EXIT was one of the most important in their careers, and that after the pandemic they finally got the necessary energy and inspiration for creation of new music. The first headliners for EXIT 2022 were recently announced - the great Nick Cave and his band, The Bad Seeds, will arrive at the Main Stage of the Festival on 8 July and Boris Brejcha will headline legendary mts Dance arena!
"We were both proud and humble for the chance to reunite with fans and favourite artists at as many as three of our festivals over the summer. However, that opportunity was not served to us, we had to fight for it! We have shown great responsibility and taken rigorous safety measures, thanks to which everything passed without a mass spread of the infection, thus proving that big festivals can be held safely even under the pandemic conditions. This proof is crucial in the further struggle of the festival industry for self-preservation in 2022, so that other countries could follow the examples of Serbia and Great Britain, which showed courage in opening up to large events", stated the founder and director of the EXIT Festival, Dušan Kovačević.The introduction to the successful summer for EXIT's festival family was made by the multiple European festival champion EXIT, which took place from July 8 to 11 at the Petrovaradin Fortress in Novi Sad.

Admission to the festival was limited to those who were vaccinated, tested negative with a PCR or rapid test or had the virus and recovered with antibodies, with a negative antigen test, while scientific studies conducted at the Festival proved that there has not been any mass spread of the virus at and after EXIT!
