The Magical EXIT Adventure takes off with 44,000 visitors at the Fortress!
This year’s magical EXIT Adventure took off with the people from all corners of the globe – from the farthest corners of the world, to the even more numerous local fans, as well as fans from the entire region! During the first night of Exit Festival, 44,000 visitors passed through the festival doors, getting the Exit Magic started in front of the traditional Main Stage fireworks display. And then ensued a musical sensation in the form of the ultimate pop princess Ellie Goulding, whose name echoed across Main Stage, and at some moments overpowered the deafening spectacle overhead!
The intro caused a real delirium with just a part of the namesake hit. The show continued with “Aftertaste”, which was followed one after another by worldwide hits “Lights”, “Burn”, “On My Mind”, “I Need Your Love” and others, while the very end was reserved for the absolute megahit ballad “Love Me Like You Do” with a unanimous verdict from the crowd – “WE DO”! Before Ellie, the Main Stage was blown away by the British indie rockers Bastille who played hit after hit like Things Lost In Fire”, “Bad Blood” and the absolute anthem for this year’s EXIT Adventure, “Pompeii”! The excitement at Main stage continued with performances by the British hit making duo Sigma, after which the London collective “Playaz” celebrated 20 years together with their drumandbass champion DJ Hype, hip-hop dive MS Dynamite and the talented Sub Zero!
Especially loud and impeccable was the star of this year’s main stage “Anya”, the new revolutionary sound system by US Company EAW, which recently arrived from USA and is the first of its kind in Europe!
Fusion Stage welcomed great performances by Nova Heart, Gooral, Urban & 4, ZAA, while the honor of closing the stage was given to the legendary local group from Novi Sad, Obojeni program. The fans of fierce gigs sang loud at Explosive Stage with Anti-Flag, The Rumjacks, and many others.
The first night on mts Dance Arena was marked by truly audio-video spectacle and officially the best DJ duo Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, and we produced a night to remember at the jam-packed, Exit’s world famous stage. The absolute triumph was reserved for Solomun and the most popular regional DJ trio TTP – Teenage Techno Punks, who made a special reunion just for EXIT with Marko Nastić, Dejan Milićević and Miloš Pavlović!
