Get ready to experience an incredible performance by the star who won hearts worldwide at Eurovision 2024! Dynamic and talented, Baby Lasagna, with his unique and captivating rock and roll sound, has become the absolute favourite of European and global audiences alike. After winning by a wide margin the most votes from Eurovision fans and leaving the big stage as the people’s champion, he arrives at Petrovaradin Fortress on July 10th to kick off the 24th edition of the EXIT festival with his bold guitar sound and recognizable dance moves. Following Konstrakta’s virtuoso performance at the Fortress in 2022, Baby Lasagna is the first regional artist to headline EXIT.
Eurovision 2024 Grand Final: Baby Lasagna- Rim Tim Tagi Dim
“We are extremely proud that someone from our region emerged victorious among the Eurovision audience, especially with a rock and roll number. It’s fantastic to see urban sounds gaining more prominence at Eurovision,” said EXIT festival founder and director Dušan Kovačević.
Baby Lasagna, also known as Marko Purišić, first appeared as a solo artist less than a year ago. However, by participating in the Croatian selection for the Eurovision representative – Dora, he immediately solidified his position in the music scene not only in the region but also globally. From the moment he won first place at Dora to the Eurovision final, he remained the ultimate choice of viewers, as proven in the final. Baby Lasagna garnered by far the most votes from fans of this television spectacle, from over 100 countries worldwide, and although he finished in second place, he left Malmo as the uncompromising winner of the audience.
The musician from Umag will bring his distinctive sound to the Main Stage of the EXIT festival this July. With his entertaining music and satirical lyrics deeply intertwined with messages about contemporary issues, Lasagna will shake the biggest stage at the Fortress. In addition to the Eurovision mega-hit, which made it to the top 5 of the Global Spotify’s Viral 50 list and has over 4 million views on YouTube, Baby Lasagna has two more songs, “Don’t hate yourself, but don’t love yourself too much” and “IG BOI”, singles that will be featured on his debut album “Demons & Mosquitos”. Before stepping onto Exit’s biggest stage in July, the native of Umag will first perform in his hometown as one of the headliners at the Sea Star festival in May.
Marko’s performance at Exit will mark a strong start to the festival with guitar riffs, dynamic drums, and explosive energy that this performer carries with him, which is synonymous with the energy of the fortress during the four days of the festival.
This year’s EXIT will also feature Tom Morello, Black Eyed Peas, Gucci Mane, Carl Cox, Alok, Oliver Tree, John Newman Hybrid DJ Set, Maceo Plex, Black Coffee, Ofenbach, Kenya Grace, Steve Angello, Cavalera, Bonobo DJ Set, Sara Landry, Klangkuenstler, Rudim3ntal, and many others.
The next edition of the EXIT festival, with the theme EXIT Starseeds and the slogan “Awaken our superpowers together”, will be held from July 11th to 14th, 2024, at Petrovaradin Fortress, with day zero, July 10th, reserved for a special Starseeds Takeover performance at the Tesla Universe stage.
Four-day passes, as well as one-day tickets are available here.
