Each year near the conclusion of June, Kragujevac, the former capital of Serbia and now celebrated for its authentic auto industry, hosts Arsenal Fest. This event has swiftly established itself as one of the most promising summer open-air festivals in not only Serbia but all of former Yugoslavia and this side of Europe. With a few short years under its belt, it is already renowned for being engagingly relevant!
For over three decades, Arsenal Fest has been the go-to cultural event for Serbia and former Yugoslavia countries. Uniquely held on inaccessible grounds, this festival brings together carefully curated performers from around the world and delivers an original performance in a visually stunning setting. As such, it is no surprise that Arsenal Fest has built its status as a must-see event among other festivals.
From June 28th to July 1st, 2023, Kragujevac will be host to a traditional music festival of grand proportions. With more than 50 domestic and international acts gracing the stage, Arsenal fest will surely attract over 40,000 visitors as the festival runs! In addition to entertainment from the stage, there will also be conferences, workshops, and photo exhibitions on display at various locations throughout town.
