The Prodigy Group has a special status in Serbia. The local audience adores them, just like they adore them, but this relationship does not come from anywhere. The Prodigy are the first foreign band to visit Belgrade in 1995, eight days before the signing of the Dayton Accords, while the war was still officially over, and immediately after the sanctions, as part of their world tour when they were at their peak. On December 8, 1995, in today's Aleksandar Nikolić Hall, a former Pionir, a record number of visitors was recorded, which has not been dropped even today.
While the whole of Serbia was in media and political darkness, completely excluded from the world, and young people in Serbia forgotten by the state without any hope for a better tomorrow, The Prodigy held a concert that was a turning point in many generations of Serbia, thus gaining cult status.
At the cultural level, this event was completely under the radar of people from political life, and it gave young people in Serbia hope for a better tomorrow.
