Did You Know?
EXIT has been held inside Petrovaradin Fortress since 2000, when it began as a student movement against the Milošević government and ran for a hundred days. It now draws close to 200,000 people over four nights.
The clock: the fortress clock tower has oversized hour hands and small minute hands, so river traffic could read the hour from a distance — locals call it the drunken clock.
