Art & events

Lots of strange things take place at Roskilde. Some events are held by the audience, but should you at one point feel bored you can be sure that entertainment can be had right round the nearest tent corner.

Peculiar event troupes show up unannounced when you least expect it, and agoras at the camping ground glow from life and unpredicted ideas – funny, weird and thought-provoking. Roskilde Festival never sleeps.

Read the articles below about some of the events which filled this festival with all sorts of colouration.
