The mts Dance Arena at EXIT has long been revered as the ultimate sanctuary of electronic music and the premier dance stage globally. Nestled within the colossal trenches of the Petrovaradin Fortress, it remains an essential pilgrimage for electronic music enthusiasts, not just in Serbia but all around the world. Heavyweights like Black Coffee, Carl Cox, Maceo Plex, Sama’ Abdulhadi, Klangkuenstler, Carlita, I Hate Models, and Patrick Mason, among other global titans, are set to electrify the unique mts Dance Arena with an innovative and breathtaking lineup and production that raises the bar year after year. And that’s not all, as Friday’s special surprise lineup is yet to be revealed!
A crucial part of any electronic music enthusiast’s journey within the Fortress’s walls is the iconic NSNS Refreshed by Heineken Silver stage, which has been delivering an alternative electronic sound to fans for years. Sara Landry, Oguz, Yotto, Estella Boersma, Francis Mercier, Helena Hauff, and many others will bring their unique energies to the sleepless trench from July 11 to 14. Whether you’re into techno, house, or tech-house, EXIT has a lineup ready to satisfy every musical palate.
“We are proud to present one of our best electronic music editions so far. Every year, we elevate both the line up and production to a higher level, so we are justifying the reputation of being the leading dance floor in the world,” said the founder and director of the EXIT festival, Dušan Kovačević.
