From Aug. 8-11, 2025, Balance Croatia brings 3 days, 3 nights, 3 stages, and handcrafted lineup to over 5,000 music lovers.
Prepare to embark on an unforgettable journey this coming summer as Balance Music presents the inaugural Balance Croatia Festival, a groundbreaking celebration of progressive and melodic house music. From Aug. 8-11, 2025, the stunning Garden Resort in Tisno will transform into a paradise for house music lovers, hosting some of the most iconic names in the scene.
This debut festival, co-hosted with The Soundgarden, Skyline Events, and Super Progressive, marks 25 years of Balance Music, blending cutting-edge sound with an idyllic coastal backdrop. The festival boasts a lineup that reads like a dream for true house heads. Progressive legends Sasha & John Digweed will bring their unparalleled synergy to the decks, while Hernán Cattáneo and Nick Warren, masters of deep, emotive soundscapes, are set to deliver sets.
Artists like Sébastien Léger, Eelke Kleijn, and Rodriguez Jr. (live) are sure to craft an immersive atmosphere, blending melodic finesse with their signature styles. Rising acts such as Forty Cats, Sinca, and Niki Sadeki will add a fresh edge to the program, alongside heavyweights like Guy J, Guy Mantzur, and Jeremy Olander, who promise sets that blend innovation with pure dancefloor energy.
Attendees can revel in live performances with Hannes Bieger’s and Rodriguez Jr.’s stunning live sets, while melodic house aficionados will be drawn to the talents of Roy Rosenfeld, Budakid, and Miss Melera. The lineup extends further with Anthony Pappa, Danny Howells, and Quivver delivering masterclasses in groove, alongside the hypnotic sounds of Eli Nissan, Armen Miran, and Amonita. With luminaries like Tim Green, Henry Saiz, and Dave Seaman in the mix, the fest is set to be a comprehensive exploration of the genre.
Tom Pandzic, founder of Balance says: “Balance Croatia will be an exciting and historic showcase of progressive and melodic house, spanning the decades, genres, and with international artists – both major stars and rising talent, which I believe has never been seen before on this scale at the one event for fans of this genre. We have also launched the Balance Croatia podcast featuring festival artists, with Eelke Kleijn delivering the first mix.”
The Balance festival venues are seemingly just as as captivating as the lineup. The Yard Stage will feature dazzling visuals to complement the music, while the Beach Stage offers the chance to dance on the sand – or even in the sea. For those seeking a more intimate vibe, the Olive Grove Stage provides a tranquil setting under the trees, and the iconic boat parties aboard the Argonaut promise an unparalleled experience on the Adriatic waters.
Balance Croatia Festival is more than just a music event; it’s a destination, a community, and a celebration of electronic artistry. With additional acts yet to be announced, this festival is shaping up to be the definitive choice for summer 2025. Let the beats of Balance Croatia and striking allure of the Dalmatian coast carry you away this August.
