Sales must be terrible, no wonder with Guetta as main name in 2020.. Interesting, but hard to imagine something like Tyga playing before PJ 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people from this forum said that Prophets of Rage were to play Exit (and Open'er, Graspop and several others which I forgot) before RATM thing happened. They badly need some rock name Just last year they had The Cure, Greta Van Fleet and Phil Anselmo doing Pantera (for the first time anyone from Pantera came to Serbia) on mainstage. This year so far literally nobody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrej Posted May 21, 2020 Report Share Posted May 21, 2020 Yes, heard from friends from back home that it will take place mid August, with only regional bands, cheap ticket etc. I guess the festival is very close to government & politics, and is funded heavily from City & National Government, so they need to keep it alive and do it no matter what.

FestivalJamie Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 Sounds stupid to me. No way can you hold a festival and keep everyone 2m apart. The smaller event in august will most likely be cancelled as well, it’s just putting off the inevitable. Holding any mass gatherings this year is far far too risky and could have catastrophic repercussions until the situation stabilises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is stupid but welcome to the Serbian government Exit and Arsenal basically begged the government to cancel them a few weeks ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklord Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Capacity in half. They said they'll have only the main stages and won't organize the small stuff I guess only regional acts and DJs They said they'll announce everything on monday Edited May 29, 2020 by Nicklord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrej Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Interesting, just saw that news. Does that mean 20-25,000 people in one place, without social distancing? Hm, guess they will be winners of the summer then, cause they didnt cancel, and they went ahead. Cause 80% of EU festivals could have taken place then, fit into the capacity etc. Line up will be the problem of course, it should be mostly local bands i guess.

I think we're open (or going to be very soon) for every country.

neacaisa Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 Even if they will have the country open, the bands won't tour. I wouldn't bet even on edm acts being there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they can't change it? Strange, we'll see tomorrow what their plans are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrej Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 I would say regional acts + international DJs. DJs / EDM acts dont rely on regular touring as rock bands. DJs do one offs, fly in and fly out etc. So if a DJ is based in Berlin, Paris, Istanbul or London, he can easily do a show in Serbia mid August i think. He or she comes, with a USB stick in the pocket and a laptop, and the show can take place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be few more smaller stages and possibly the Main stage as well (currently in reconsideration) So in total, international DJs, possibly big international EDM acts and regional bands.

Looks fair So basically same as last couple of years except less hip hop and without very few rock decent names 😆 Seriously it looks like the only big (still 20-30k?) festival event going on this year.

hostmat Posted June 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 Yes, I would say so. Bigger rock bands and Hip Hop / Trap acts from US with bigger production stopped their tours due to Covid19, so it makes sense. So far it is the only one major festival, but if the situation in general becomes better, maybe some other festivals will decide to go ahead too.
