Joining already announced Arcade Fire and Portishead to the Main Stage are rock legends Grinderman who will be electrifying the fortress with their growling formidable rock beast of a band! Formed by the suave Nick Cave and featuring the members of The Bad Seeds but 'badder', we expect no less than a rampage of strutting and swaggering “mixing horror and black humour with barely tamed musical malevolence” (The Guardian, September 2010).
Through the cobbled streets and into to the Dance Arena, Fedde Le Grand will put his hands up for his first ever performance at Exit Festival. DJ and producer extraordinaire, the Dutch deckmanship is set to set alight the moat with his variety of underground, credible and chart topping tracks with a few classics thrown in for good measure. Another young Dutchman will be performing on the Dance Arena this year in the form of Joris Voorn. Having sealed his place as techno glitterati many moons ago, his production is in every top djs’ record box and he will be bringing his fresh techno, breaks and house sound to the arena. Whilst the Grammy award nominee Frenchman Joachim Garraud will be performing his Invasion show, and if you’ve seen clips already on youtube you will see how much fun it is. Joachim has produced for the finest DJs such as David Guetta, Deep Dish, Moby and even Kylie so you can be sure his show will be nothing short of spectacular. They will be joining already announced Tiga, James Zabiela, and Gramophonedzie. We certainly can’t wait!
EXIT 2011 plays host to a variety of 400 performances on 20 stages connected by cobbled streets, ramparts and tunnels – a walk through the mystical fortress is like a trip through a magical wonderland. Music ranges from rock, dance, indie, Latino, reggae, electronica, chill out and regional music, so there is no better festival in the world that brings you so much value and so much variety!

ABOUT EXIT:
EXIT is one of the most highly regarded festivals in Europe, being nominated for ‘Best Overseas Festival’ in the UK Festival Awards for the past 4 years, winning the coveted title in 2007 and runner up in 2010. In addition EXIT has also been nominated for ’Best Major Festival’ in European Festival Awards for 2 years running and has been shortlisted in the ‘Artists Favourite Festival’ Category.
And not forgetting the festivals roots and special meaning – Launched 12 years ago as a student initiated protest against the communist Milosevic regime, EXIT has proved that music is a universal language that can connect and bring people together to make the world a better place. EXIT continues to evolve and bring like-minded people together and although it gets bigger each year, the sentiment and unique vibe remains the same.
