Bob Geldof, the man known for decades of fighting for social change, personally opened this year’s Exit Festival with a message that stirred strong emotions. His official fan page, managed by his team, shared a text from Danas about the festival’s opening, calling it a “lovely review” and saying it’s worth the effort to attend. Yes, you read that right – Bob Geldof himself used Google Translate to share a local article about an event in Serbia!
Why does this matter? Because the Exit Festival, celebrating its anniversary this year, is way more than just a music event. It’s a place where culture and social issues intertwine, where young people from Serbia and the region get support and a voice. Geldof’s commitment to social causes, known since Live Aid days, takes on a new meaning here. His message to the youth and the region isn’t empty words – it’s a sign that the world hasn’t forgotten us or our problems.
In a time when information is often shallow and quickly forgotten, gestures like this are rare and precious. The team running his fan page shows that words from the region, even those published in local media, can have a global echo. Exit Festival isn’t just fun – it’s a place where change is born, where art and culture have the power to change the world.
If you thought it was just another festival, think again. Bob Geldof’s presence and message remind us that no one can silence us if we don’t let them. And if you need another reason to visit Exit, remember it’s where history is made, where young voices are heard, and where the world changes – all to great music.
