Organisers of the Electric Castle music festival, which has been taking place in Cluj since 2013, announce their return after skipping 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Between August 6th and 15th, there will be a unique "EC_Special" edition held at the familiar Bánffy Castle in Bonțida, just outside of Cluj-Napoca, but also in 30 venues across Cluj-Napoca, which is a first for Electric Castle.

Electric Castle 2021 Lineup

The original line-up, featuring headliners such as Twenty One Pilots, Gorillaz and Deftones, remains scheduled for 13-17 July 2022, and this special festival is aimed at providing the EC experience, whilst catering for various COVID-19 measures.

The EC team have been communicating that vaccination is the only way to attend the festival, based on regulations which are in-place to reduce the risks of COVID-19 transmission, as the country begins to fear a new wave of cases, despite new case numbers remaining low across the country.
