Roskilde Festival 2024

The Roskilde Festival 2024 is more than music, art, food, and parties. Much more. It's also a week-long celebration of togetherness and community.

The Roskilde Festival is a Danish music festival held annually south of Roskilde. It is one of Europe's largest music festivals and Northern Europe's largest music festivals. It was created in 1971 by two high school students, Mogens Sandfær and Jesper Switzer Møller and promoter Carl Fischer. In 1972, the festival was taken over by the Roskilde Foundation, which has since run the festival as a non-profit organization for the development and support of music, culture, and humanism.

The Roskilde Festival was Denmark's first music-oriented festival created for hippies, and today, it attracts more mainstream youth from Scandinavia and the rest of Europe. Until the mid-1990s, the festival attracted mostly Scandinavians, but in recent years, it has become increasingly international (with a huge influx of Germans, Australians, and British).
