Belgrade - A British music-fan at the Exit festival in Serbia died on Saturday after falling from the wall of the fortress where the event is taking place, local media reported.
The 22-year-old Londoner fell from one of the walls of the Petrovaradin fortress and later died in Novi Sad hospital.
The police said there were no indications of foul play.
Serbia's biggest music festival, Exit, which finishes on Sunday night, is extremely popular among Britons - who voted it the best music festival in 2007.
Organizers of the festival say some 12,000 foreign tourists, mostly from Britain, visited Exit this year.
