Denmark's eight-day Roskilde Festival began in 1971 when a couple of high school students, Mogens Sandfær and Jesper Switzer Møller, with promoter Carl Fischer, decided they needed a reason to party and hear great music. Over the years, the festival has grown exponentially in size and its cultural and societal impact.
With over 100,000 attendees annually, it's one of Europe's biggest festivals driven by non-profit ideals. All profits from the festival go to social and cultural charities.
What's it like?
Picture a city of tents sprawling as far as you can see, filled with people from all walks of life gathered in one place to celebrate music, art, and community. The music is diverse, featuring international stars and local Scandinavian talent, and nearly every genre is represented, including punk, electronic, jazz, hip-hop, rock, and folk performances.
The Art Zone is another feature highlighting the work of innovative and talented artists. The Science Pavilion presents exploration, talks, and workshops on sustainability and technology. It's a real fusion of different cultures and ideas.
And then there is the food. Food stalls serve a wide range of cuisines that promote sustainability, including organic and vegan options.
The Roskilde Festival is for anyone who loves music, arts, and a vibrant community atmosphere. It's more than a festival; it's an experience.
PLEASE NOTE:
Treat all televised and venue-specific events (sporting, concerts, trade shows, etc.) as estimated. Several factors can cause an event to move dates at the last minute, including weather, strikes, natural disasters, political upheaval, conflicting programming, pandemics, and current events. Because of this, always verify the event with the promotor before committing resources. LEEP often estimates dates based on the previous year's schedules, as the final dates are only a few months, weeks, or days before the event. If the date is known to be estimated, you will see an (est) following the date in the title.
