This year’s Stand Up Fest, seventh since the manifestation started, will he held from October 17th to October 23rd in cultural center “Vuk Karadzic”.
We can recommend this festival to all our guests, since it is the one event which will truly lift your spirits. Stand Up comedy motivates the audience to think about current issues and some of the contradictions of the modern society. Stand Up Fest also has transnational character, as many comedians from the Balkans and other European countries, perform their acts in English.
Stand Up Fest is also very interesting since many young comedians are performing there in front of large audiences for the first time. That way, attitude of the crowd can really have an impact on comedians, and even influence their future development. Both the young and more experienced comedians are often talking to the audience during the shows, so you have to be ready to answer a question or two, or even accept a joke on your behalf.
One novelty this year is the night of macabre humor, so if you are in any way sensitive to some topics or ideas, or you don’t like to discuss some topics in the unfamiliar environment, you better prepare for a shock, as there are no taboo topics in Stand Up comedy.
Tickets for the festival can be bought online via the website tickeline.rs, or directly in “Vuk Karadzic” cultural center. It is located in King Alexander Boulevard, so walk from the hotel is just about 30 minutes long, taking you through the very center of the city. You can also take a bus or a taxi, making it only a 10 minute ride.
Do not miss to attend at least one day of this festival, as you have the opportunity to see some of the best comedians in Europe. It is the biggest festival of this type, and well worth your time.
