Alongside 20% of fans from Cluj-Napoca, there were 60% local music lovers from other parts of Romania.  

Day 1 saw Tujamo declare his mainstage set “the best two hours of my life” and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike exclaim: “Romania, let me tell you something. You are the most wonderful and strongest audience in the world. We were just waiting to get to you.” Day 2 saw regular headliner Armin Van Buuren steal the headlines, entering the stage as the Orchestra of the Romanian National Opera played the Romanian national anthem and with a slew of vocalists joining him throughout his set.

This was all part of an exclusive show, ARMIN UNTOLD, made especially for UNTOLD‘s 5 year anniversary. Bastille performed an epic main stage set on Day 3 to a rapturous response, while Danny Avila took to the stage with a full dance company interpreting his powerful beats.
