The punk-folk legends Brkovi are coming to Kragujevac for Arsenal Fest 2024! The regionally popular band, celebrating 20 years of existence, returns to the familiar space of Knezev Arsenal, where they will close the program of the first night of the three-day festival on June 27th at the Main stage (June 27-29).

The Zagreb-based band creates an atmosphere to remember at every concert. There’s no doubt it will be the same in the heart of Sumadija, where, along with their classic hits, they will also present songs from last year’s album “Krvava novcanica”.

“We’re coming to Arsenal stronger than ever. I can’t wait to see happy faces and get my hands on some domestic products. See you in Kragujevac, cheers,” says Brkovi’s frontman Šemso 69.

On the same night, young Belgrade guitarist Vuk Vukajlovic will perform at the Garden stage, and on June 29th, singer-songwriter Iva Lorens will present herself in Zastava’s Garden.

At the opening of Arsenal Fest 2024, alongside Brkovi on the Main stage, performances will feature Hollywood superstar Keanu Reeves with his band Dogstar, Asian Dub Foundation, and Partibrejkers. On the Main stage on June 28th, the stars include Bijelo dugme, Nouvelle Vague, Lil Pump, and Coby, while on the last night, June 29th, Zdravko Čolić with a symphony orchestra, Goblini, Palaye Royale, and Circa Waves will take the stage.

In the Garden on June 27th, alongside Vuk Vukajlovic, the lineup includes Nicim izazvan, Keni nije mrtav, Jarboli, Svemirko, Lufthansa, Gajbras T, Bad Daughter, Grand Mess, Tago Mago, Forever Storm, and Lipov loud. The following evening features Ritam nereda, Mortal kombat, Miki Radojevic and band, Mimi Mercedez, Rouzi, Jet Vesper, Njezz, and Oathbringer, and on June 29th, alongside Iva Lorens, Nik West, E-play, Savrseni marginalci, Z++, Sivert Hoyem, Zhiva, and Despite The Noise.

Single-day tickets for the first and second day cost 2,700 dinars, while for the third day it’s 2,900 dinars. The price for a ticket for all three nights is 5,500 dinars. For one-day VIP tickets, the price is 12,000 dinars, and for a three-day package, it’s 24,000 dinars. Tickets can be purchased through Tickets.rs and all their sales outlets.

As a prelude to Arsenal Fest 2024, the first music showcase “Glow” will be organized in Kragujevac on Friday, May 17th. In collaboration with the PI organization, a rich, free program is planned at four locations.
