FOR Festival is today pleased to announce the second round of performers for the Croatian island festival.

Simply Øye and an acoustic guitar, it commences with a series of cover songs, starting from 1962 and continuing onwards, taking on classics from 65, 68 and so on until arriving at the commencement of his own oeuvre in the late 90's, including all his passions and pop music epiphanies up until the present day. It promises to be an intimate, illuminating live set from one of this generation’s more unique voices. Tickets for this year’s FOR Festival are on sale now at  For-Festival.com . The weekend FOR pass offers entry into the live shows at Veneranda and the all night parties at private island carpe diem Beach, from Thursday June 19th to Sunday June 22nd. There are only 2500 tickets available for the 4 day experience, so we strongly advise purchasing quickly to guarantee your place on the island. One of the 10 Best European Summer Festivals of 2013  - Forbes Magazine “It’s possible you have not heard an excellent DJ set unless you have heard one while swimming in the Mediterranean.” - The Fader WHAT IS FOR?FOR launched in 2013 on the island of Hvar in Croatia, as an alternative to the current crop of music festivals across the world. Structured as a music experience inside an island vacation, with a very limited amount of tickets available, no clashing performances, and a schedule that allows for activities such as boating, winery visits, and mornings spent on the beach, as well as a diverse and genre-pushing roster of performances, FOR is an unforgettable destination event not to be missed. 
DESTINATION“It’s almost comically beautiful, with emerald water and ancient stone churches, houses with reddish pink rooftops and giant yachts docked everywhere. Who knew Croatia was so gorgeous?” – The Fader Hvar is an ancient Croatian island in the Adriatic Sea, located off the Dalmatian Coast. The island is accessed via a short ferry or catamaran trip from the port town of Split. Hvar is well known for its spectacular beauty, glorious waters, yachting to the many surrounding islands, and incredibly fresh local cuisine.

 “Everything feels VIP:  A boat always at the ready to take you across to Carpe Diem Beach? Check. Swimming in the sea with Londoners Horse Meat Disco? Check. Waved off by James Murphy at first light Sunday morning? Check. Yes, this is the festival where artists and attendees all commingle and together take to Pink Champagne in the wee hours to continue the party. This is where boat service and delicious fresh food is always available. Where you drink Prosecco on the rocks — literal ones — while kicking your feet in the surf. FOR Festival is not a music festival. It’s more like a resort.” ­– Societe Perrier “…a festival of music lovers for music lovers without any VIP areas or hierarchies.” – Festivalrykten Stay in touch.FACEBOOKTWITTERWEBSITEINSTAGRAM @FOR_festivalTag us #ForFestival and #For14
