It'll be Serbian dinar, right? Yeah. Rate should be around 118 dinars for one euro. Also don't change money at the train/bus stations. They always have the worst rates.

There're a lot of international people from all over the world. Usually it's really quiet between 7am and 1pm. That's kinda like a house rule. Almost everyone sleeps outside of their tents, especially those people who were unlucky and got a spot under the sun Between 5pm and 9pm it gets loud and everybody predrinks together really, you can just sit with anyone and be like "hey my new friends", from my experience of Sziget, Novarock, Rock im Park and Rock Wercher it's by faaaaar the friendliest camp in that regard. Wait for the shower and stuff like that isn't longer than 2 minutes. There's a festival shop and a bar in the camp. There're 10 food outlets literally just outside the camp, right on the beach. You'll see when you get there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking of booking one of the student dorm style places that are on the Exit site. It says it's 2.5km from the festival site, and 50m from the beach. When i put the address in google maps, it says its actually 4km (50min) walk from the fortress??? Does anyway have any hotel recommendations? just want something quiet, AC pref and walkable to site. oh and cheap. yeah, i dont want much Thanks guys Hey. Romanian here. Romania is nice too(Bosnia is exotic - been to Mostar once, awesome place - though our "mici" are way tastier than their cevapi ? ), but mainly Transylvania, which is not that close(not far either). Transylvanian food is just...really, really good, if you know what and where to get. Strong hungarian influences, and that's always a good thing, esp when talking about food. This one's going to be my first Exit, booked a place many months ago, but it's a bit far from the fortress(Rumenačka - about 1h by foot, according to google maps). I suppose public transportation is shut down at small hours, right? So the only way would be taxis. Are they more expensive during the festival? Drink prices are about the same as they are at our biggest festivals, Electric Castle&Untold. Is there any food available @Exit?(for non campers)? Thanks.

Doriannn Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 About the line-up, I'm just a bit underwhelmed(bought the ticket the second The Cure were announced). Exit got more electronic, compared to its past, in my eyes. But it's ok, I like Kalkbrenner/Solomun/Maceo Plex/Greta van Fleet/Anselmo/Brejcha/Booze and glory(yeah, I'm quite eclectic. and old. :-)) ). But hey, I really can't complain, considering the price. I'll go and see Florence + the machine @Electric Castle(the one day ticket costs me more than what I've paid for the whole Exit ticket), and maybe Robbie Williams @Untold, dunno yet. So yeah, I honestly can't wait. Two weeks to go! Yay! ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no public transportation between 00:00 and 4:30 roughly depending on the line. You can see the schedule on every bus stop or online About taxis, well half of them rise the price, half of them don't. The price should be around 400 dinars (3.5€). I use crveni taxi but it's always the best to ask the driver before entering how much it's gonna be and if they say much more just don't go in There is, there's a whole zone called foodland near the main entrance and near fusion stage there's one more part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sort of used to those taxi methods from back home, that's why I asked. :)) I presume the payments(food, drinks, merch) at the festival will be electronic, like some precharged wristband or something, right? Or directly by card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I waited for a drink for more than 3 minutes in my life Don't know when you'll be in Novi Sad but there're tons of stuff going on on tuesday and wednesday in city center with free concerts, parties, random activities like shirt painting and stuff like that.

hostmat Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 19 hours ago, Dazrigby88 said: thanks buddy... cant fucking wait Didn't even know there was a beach! hahahaha ? Mate, the campsite is located at Public city beach called Strand Possibly this is the one of the most beautiful festival camping spots. You can buy multi Strand pass (wristband) for just just 2.5 EUR which will give you rights to enter the public city beach from the campsite with no restrictions.What tie does the festival open during the day? Fun fact, The Cure will start on 9pm on Day 1 which is really interesting as the most of headliners in previous years were around midnight. Gates are open from 7pm - 3am, but the festival goes until 8am (the last active stages are Dance Arena and No Sleep Stage). Starting from 8am Official After party will open the gates at the ditch "Bastion stage" next to Dance Arena, and the festival day is officially closed on 2pm As Nicklord mentioned few times, Tuesday and Wednesday night before the festival are impressive too as there are many interesting contents at the city center.

Cash? Probably not. But you can use your debit/credit card to recharge your payment bracelet / token on the spot. At least that's how things in Romania work., so it's probably valid in Serbia also.

She is wrong She can pay only in local currency (Serbian dinars, 1 EUR = cca 118 Dinars) and with debit/credit cards at the festival (and the city). There are many Exchange Offices in Novi Sad, so she should defo buy Dinars before she come to the Fortress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicklord Posted July 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 It wasn't Last night was okay crowd wise but I have some fears about today. They don't have anything big on the main stage now that DJ Snake cancelled so Tale of Us and Solomun are going to be rammed for sure even with the less people inside the fortress Phil Anselmo can sing again, I was surprised but boy does he talk a lot. He could've easily played 3-4 more songs if he didn't milk every single applause and kissassed the crowd so much 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklord Posted July 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) This was my favorite Exit in a long time. I had bands that I'd like to see every single day before going to the dance arena and/or NSNS, a huge win for me after several years The Cure, Anselmo, Tarja, Greta and Whitechapel were all great. Greta's songs aren't really good but they play, jam and improvise really well, loved them at Werchter too. The most fun at the arena was Dax J, holy shit that crowd wasn't ready for him, dude just goes hard for 2 straight hours without a single quiet part. Saw so many people give up and go from the arena ? I tried to film a few seconds but my phone couldn't handle it at all and it could handle death metal https://streamable.com/k6zk8 Edited July 9, 2019 by Nicklord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
