There will also be pre-parties on 7th August. A beach party at The Garden Resort for all festival ticket holders, plus Deep Dish & Khen after-party at Barbarella’s with early bird tickets to be released in 2025.
Tom Pandzic, founder of Balance says: “We’re really excited to announce the second phase of artists to what is already an extraordinary line-up. The balance between the next generation of quality acts along with legendary names, is what makes this festival so special, and with quite possibly the best overall line-up that scene has ever witnessed in one place, we might also have the best ever crowd that will gather from all around the globe to make Balance Croatia one of the most memorable festivals in 2025.”
