EXIT is going to be CRAZY!!!!!

It doesn't look like there's any really distressing clashes either. Of course, parts of acts will have to be sacrificed, but it is shaping up nicely!!

Would anyone be able to tell me of any good sites that might have info on sideshows, or other gigs that are happening around the area (even outside of Serbia)??? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm coming all the way from Australia, and have no idea where to start looking for that kind of info.

Cheers!

wow, that one sounds hectic. that would just be huge. but i won't be in serbia yet, when castle fest is on.

i was kind of surprised to see nick cave & the bad seeds on that calendar in june. thats pretty cool. its just good to see that its not only f**king kylie thats popular outside OZ. Australia seems to export the shittest talent, and beer. Fosters tastes like ass.

We didnt find the quality to be amazing, fairly clean in that the come down wasnt too bad, but weren't great. Quite easy to get hold of, both in the festival, around the camp and in the town. We just got chattin to a couple of local lads in a cafe and they did all the hard work and delivered em to us. We probably paid a bit of a premium on them because we were't gettin them off the main men, they passes through a number of hands but i think about a fiver a piece was the going rate. If it aint more expensive than the UK then you can have no complaints.

so I will bring the mosquito spray just in case!!

can i wear flip-flops at the festival site? or will my feet get trodden on? should i bring wellies, or is that just silly?

Generally how hot has it been during the day...and does it get chilly at night? should i bring a rain-mac thing?

Is the serbian food generally meat based....I only eat fish...give me some examples of typical serbian fare that I could be eating?

thanks!

[im from Novi Sad and since I have a lopt of exitfest experience this is the story: u can wear flip flops if we're speaking of the sam thing...a thing with a merc shaped straps and one goes between ur toes? :D but in the festival forget about that thing!!!!!...last year there were some fast food stands near festival camp with ur traditional fish and chips,,,:) I saw that, Brits literally drank the food ,if u know what I mean:)

about serbian meat food: do not buy anything from people offering that on ur way to the festival- u have a big chance to get sick since those temps in july are freaky . about the taste...hmmmm,thats up to u. I like it and I eat only in restaurants.

\

in the night..u wont get cold thats for shure.

if u are about to stay in camp this is my friendly advice: come at least a day earlier because on the begginig day there will be obly spots in the sun left....shaded spots are grabbed a day or two earlier. if u want to stay in a hotel here is another advice: i went to their websites and guess what: PRICES ARE OUTRAGEOUS!!!! try some apartments instead. there will be a lot of locals near the camp offering apartments. prices will be higher than usual so u will have to use ur barging skills....or just book an apartment over the internet ,or contact me:)

what else is there to be said....yas,try that rakija drink. drugs...one price in the city,another around campus,and in festival..uhhh,hard to find, but if u do,be prepared to pay up to 12 eur a pill...

and one more thing: I know there is a lack of sunshine in uk and brits just love to lay in the sun,but be aware that u can easily burn out, not to speak about skin c... god forbid

thats all for know,if u think of something else feel free to ask.cheers ]

Speaking of things to do before/after exit, after exit me and my friends are planning on heading up to a festival in Slovakia via Split, it's called the Pohoda Festival and runs on the 18th and 19th July, looks like a pretty cool festival with lots of good uk acts and it's cheap too. Does anyone know anything about this festival, or ever been?

Cheers guys.

Sunrise Festival in Somerset is the first of the season to fall victim to the British Weather!! Gutted for all those that have been gettin hyped for the last few weeks.... Its now 2ft deep in water...

As much as I love the British festivals - the weather isn't doing them any favours.. Which means the likes of Benacassim and Exit are gonna get bigger and bigger...

    • its diabolical already 😞 .... The refs should have walked out in solidarity 
    • The main problem with these is that noone really predicts the shocks that happen in the early knockouts or quarters, so it inevitably gets to like what I put in the semis (France v Spain and Eng vs Arg). You always end up with 4/6 of the top sides reaching the semis, and this is with me 'predicting' Swiss to beat Portugal.   I think we will see a shock result against a top 5-6 team of an African/Asian side knocking a favourite out, and I can see one of the big guns resting heavily for a 3rd group game and ending up 2nd place in their group, which would throw these whole brackets out of whack.   I think the main interesting thing from the brackets, is that if you're only caring about 'likely' group winners, you have France/Spain/Germany/Belgium/Netherlands (who I'm not convinced top group F, that group seems v exciting to me), all on one side of the bracket. Albeit the other side is England/Brazil/Arg/Portugal, but the European giants do seem weighted towards one half.   'best 3rd place' is very hard to call, I suspect there might be 1 or 2 who get 6 points (tied with 2nd) but are there on goal difference/head to head, while others could be on 3 or even 2 points. I also don't actually know if a bunch of these middle-Eastern teams who I've predicted to finish bottom are that bad. I think the ConCaCaf lot who've qualified partially by virtue of the 3 strongest teams all being hosts probably are 0-1 point teams mostly, but I wonder if there's some near-Asian teams I'm underestimating.   I'm honestly really excited though.
    • Early Bird tickets at €245 if you’ve been this year. 
    • €225 plus fees (as a 2026 ticketholder and with Revolut) is a crazy good deal.    
    • I don't think PJ has as much broad appeal in the UK as GNR has. Rock listeners will know Alive and Jeremy so on, but which songs would a random person off the street know? With GNR you have Welcome To The Jungle, Sweet Child O Mine and Paradise City to name a few.
