The EXIT Music Festival in Serbia is one of the largest and most visited music events in Europe. After a year-long pause caused by the global COVID-19 pandemic, the festival took place in July 2021 in the iconic Petrovaradin Fortress in Novi Sad, Serbia. The festival continued for 4 days and had 20 stages and 200,000 visitors from across Europe. This year's edition also marked the 20th anniversary of the first edition of EXIT festival. In a week a new page of the festival’s history will be written with the first edition of Sunland Festival by EXIT in Bulgaria. 

The Serbian team is already on Perla Beach in Primorsko, where the three-day music marathon will take place between July 29th and 31st.

Rushi Vidinliev, "Upsurt", “Jeremy?”, The Top Stoppers and Wickeda are some of the Bulgarian musicians who will perform at the festival. The audience will also have the opportunity to see Russian singer and DJ Nina Kraviz, the French duo Ofenbach, Serbian band S.A.R.S, DJ Matador and many others.
