Partning ways prematurely due to illness: Exit Festival founder's spouse
EXIT Festival Founder's Wife Passes Away After Battle with Unknown Illness
The electronic music community is in mourning following the passing of Ivana Kovacevic, wife of Dusan Kovacevic, founder of the EXIT Festival. The annual music event, known for its energy, massive gatherings, and supportive community, will now serve as a rallying point for friends, artists, and fans to honor Ivana's life and impact.
Each week, music enthusiasts from around the world attend festivals and clubs to experience the beats of their favorite DJs. These events require dedication, effort, and a committed team behind the scenes, including Dusan Kovacevic. Founding the EXIT Festival in 2000, he cultivated a welcoming atmosphere for the music community. His wife, Ivana, was diagnosed with an unknown illness a year ago and has been battling it since.
Ivana's strength and resilience were evident as musicians such as the Black Eyed Peas, Carl Cox, Nina Kraviz, Maceo Plex, and John Newman showed their support. Despite their efforts, Ivana lost her battle recently, leaving behind her husband, children, and loved ones. The sad news was shared on social media by her family, with Dusan posting his heartfelt condolences and pledge to honor her memory.
In his touching message, Dusan wrote, "I speak to you in the present tense, because I feel you alive, more present and radiant than ever, within me and all around me." He vowed to care for their children and make Ivana proud.
The EXIT Festival, initially scheduled for July 10th through the 13th, will be an opportunity for the community to gather and remember Ivana. Our condolences go out to Dusan and the Kovacevic family and friends.
