This year, the world's top music attraction, Thievery Corporation, will perform for the second time on the Main Stage of Arsenal Fest 12 in the Serbian town of Kragujevac (June 30 - July 2), on the final, third night, July 2. This US band with many members afforded visitors of this festival unforgettable fun on June 23, 2017, during the seventh edition of the festival. That evening, as many as 12,000 people enjoyed the space of the Prince's Arsenal, which was a daily record that has not been broken since. Serbian fans have an even fresher memory of their spectacular performance at a crowded Tashmajdan Stadium in Belgrade on June 26, 2019.

In April 2020, the crossover legends released their 10th studio album, Symphonik, with orchestral versions of the greatest hits from their 27-year career. The band was formed by the production and creative duo Rob Garza and Eric Hilton in Washington in 1995. Thievery Corporation is credited with creating a whole subgenre of electronic music, enriched by the use of reggae, dub, hip-hop, downtempo, Indian trip-hop and bossa nova, evidet in songs such as, "The Richest Man In Babylon," "Sweet Tides," "Lebanese Blonde," "Until the Morning," "Letter To the Editor"...

Thievery Corporation represents a planetary phenomenon. They achieved great success during headliner appearances at mega festivals such as Coachella and Lollapalooza, and have sold millions of copies of their albums and garnered millions of YouTube views, without big radio hits, high-budget videos and support of big record companies.

"We have so many amazing people on the stage, of different ages, nationalities and backgrounds. That diversity helps us bring the songs from the album to life in front of the audience. We are definitely a fun orchestra, there's no dull moment at our concerts," says Rob Garza.

Thievery Corporation are already the third confirmed international headliner at this year's Arsenal. On opening evening, June 30, the gypsy punk rock attraction Gogol Bordello will take the state, and on July 1, in will be the turn of London-based alternative pop band Placebo. Until Thursday, February 17, the tickets for the third evening, when Thievery Corporation performs, will go for 1,500, while later the price will be 1,800 dinars. A single ticket for the second day (Placebo) costs 2,000 dinars, while a set of tickets for all three evenings costs 3,000 dinars.
