16 additional artists and five new stage partners will feature at the festival's 12th edition

Croatia’s premier electronic music festival has finalised its artist roster for 2025, with Sonus Croatia announcing the addition of 16 more performers and several new brand partnerships for its return to Zrće Beach this August.

Running from August 17-21, 2025, the festival offers day tickets or full week experiences with accommodation packages still available at a limited-time €50 discount through the official website.

The latest wave of confirmations brings a strong selection of talent to the five-day event, including house and techno artist SYREETA, whose journey through East London’s underground scene has led to residencies at ANTS and HE.SHE.THEY. Space Miami resident Thunderpony also joins the lineup, bringing his signature deep and dynamic approach to the Croatian coastline.

The festival’s opening celebration has been confirmed for August 16th at Aquarius, featuring Easternderz founder East End Dubs, whose sound spans dub, garage, tech and minimal influences. Dutch house producer Franky Rizardo and Elena Mikac complete the opening night lineup.

Brand partnerships have expanded significantly for 2025, with Italy’s Decibel Open Air, Madrid venue The Bassement, Düsseldorf collective Kiesgrube and Ibiza party series Keep On Dancing joining existing partners Space Miami, Factory 93, FUSE and Nordstern as stage hosts.

Regional representation comes through Ani., BAGGI, Dash, Dejan Milicevic, GLIA, Hudi, Labud, Mariano Mateljan, MENE, Tea Vuckovic and Tom Bug, reflecting the festival’s commitment to showcasing local electronic music talent alongside international acts.

The recent additions complement the previously announced headliners, including Adam Beyer, Adriatique, ARTBAT, Bedouin, Ben Klock, Boris Brejcha, Indira Paganotto, Joseph Capriati b2b Seth Troxler, Ricardo Villalobos, Richie Hawtin and Sven Väth.

The festival operates across four beachfront venues: Aquarius, Papaya, Kalypso, and Noa Beach Club. This year introduces a special takeover of the Noa Beach Stage, creating the festival’s first swimming and dancing experience directly in the water.

Sonus Croatia continues its collaboration between Time Warp, We Love Sound, and Insomniac, combining decades of event production experience as well as maintaining its partnership with the Croatian National Tourist Board as part of the #InspiredbyCroatia initiative.
