The countdown to the ultimate summer celebration, Roskilde Festival 2025, is on! With 130,000 festivalgoers, 200 concerts, world-class artists, unforgettable moments, and unparalleled art installations, it’s set to be an experience like no other.
Today, we’re adding 28 exciting new acts to the line-up – including a groundbreaking hip-hop sensation...
Her name: Doechii!
The US rapper and Grammy-nominated star is heading to Roskilde for the first time this summer. Known for her raw mixtape Alligator Bites Never Heal and praised by Kendrick Lamar as "the hardest out," Doechii is on a steady pace towards the hip-hop throne.
Before her Orange Stage debut, don’t miss her accustic Tiny Desk performance from December – a true masterclass in hip-hop.
Nine Inch Nails return to Roskilde Festival this summer. The industrial rock legends share a strong bond with our festival, last playing here in 2018. Now, Trent Reznor and co. are embarking on a world tour, stopping by Roskilde Festival on Saturday.
Get ready for an intense and boundary-pushing performance from a band that, after more than 35 years, still delivers an unmatched live energy!
The British alt-pop sensation Beabadoobee is sonically akin to rock names such as Mitski, Japanese Breakfast, and lo-fi luminaries like Pavement. The singer-songwriter is well on her way to carrying the heavy rock torch forward, and this summer, she will set the Orange Stage and hearts alight with her heartfelt lyrics, catchy melodies, and hits like "Real Man", "Glue Song", and "The Perfect Pair".
Prepare for a lesson in modern hip-hop from Schoolboy Q. With a career spanning 15 years and the acclaimed 2024 album Blue Lips, his set will be packed with unforgettable beats and melodies.
Her most recent album may be titled This Wasn’t Meant For You Anyway, but Lola Young’s Roskilde concert is meant for everyone ready for an emotional pop fest! The British star went viral last year with the massive hit 'Messy' and is a top contender for the next big thing. Period.
Another well-deserved viral sensation is American country-rapper Shaboozey. In 2024, he topped the US charts for an incredible 19 consecutive weeks with 'A Bar Song (Tipsy)' – setting a new record. His Roskilde show will be his first-ever performance in Denmark!
Roskilde Festival 2025 also welcomes British indie-rock darlings Wet Leg, currently working on the follow-up to their fantastic 2022 debut, and American singer-songwriter Lucy Dacus, a member of the supergroup boygenius, who will release her new album Forever Is A Feeling this March.
Get ready for to the Argentine Latin-trap powerhouse Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso, known for their eclectic mix of Latin pop, electronic music, and jazz. Check out their epic Tiny Desk concert!
