This year also sees the addition of a beautiful boutique campsite featuring thirty elegant Shikar tents from Jaipur, which bring a great addition of onsite sophistication to the festival. Take a dip in the Sea, pop back to your tent and then meet friends for some locally sourced food at the onsite festival restaurant. For those who want to kick back and relax alongside the awe-inspiring line up there is also Massage, Mini Golf and Table Tennis available onsite.
 
With plenty to do offsite, take in the local vibes with a stroll into the picture perfect local town of Tisno, enjoy the culinary delights of the local farming and fishing villages and explore the beautiful local Croatian coastline and national parks on foot, by car or jump on a boat and go island hopping, or if that just sounds all too hectic kick back and relax on some of Croatia’s famous beaches before, during or after the festival.

Soundwave has become the summer highlight for a growing number of regulars who return year after year with a third of the tickets selling before any artists are announced. With a handful of festivals starting up in the concrete tourist hotspots across Croatia Soundwave has become the festival synonymous with beauty in addition to its amazing line-up. Soundwave sells out early every year, as ticket numbers are limited to retain its intimate spirit so expect tickets to sell out fast!
