Catch M.I.A live before a Croatia tour

Travellers can visit Serbia before embarking on Croatia tours this summer to see M.I.A live.

The British singer, rapper and producer will be appearing at the EXIT festival, which will take place from July 7th to 10th.

Known for her innovative blends of different forms of music, ranging from hip-hop and dance to electronica and alternative genres, M.I.A has released three albums and been nominated for accolades including Grammy Awards and the Mercury Prize.

Her third record, Maya, reached number 21 in the UK charts last year, while the single Paper Planes made it into the top 20 in 2008.

The song featured on the soundtrack for the Oscar-winning movie Slumdog Millionaire.

People planning to visit the EXIT festival in the Serbian town of Novi Sad before embarking on Croatia tours will also have the chance to see Arcade Fire, Jamiroquai, Portishead, Pulp and many others.

Balkan road trips provide the opportunity to see a number of destinations in this part of Europe, from culture-rich cities such as Ljubljana and Sarajevo to Adriatic cruise hotspots like Dubrovnik and Split.
