From stone age food to the local fare of Faxe, in the new Food Court at Roskilde Festival

This year, Roskilde Festival will introduce a Food Court on the inner square. The selection will be substantial and diverse, yet with an intimate feel to the square.

Here you can visit around 19 small market stalls, all serving two distinct dishes in order to create a happening and experimental dining area where you can experience all from traditional Danish family dishes to biodynamic food, paleo (stone age) diet, porridge and local cuisine based on ingredients from Lolland-Falster south of Copenhagen.

You will be able to taste a modern interpretation of signature dishes from the Faxe region – a crispy cabbage wrap, filled with beer braised beef, or steaming hot spring rolls and the Vietnamese national soup Phó from the food stall Crispy Hote...

VINNIE WHO IS OUR FIRST ACT ON ORANGE STAGE – KRAFTWERK THE LAST

Our opening act is a shining star on the Danish electro-pop scene – the closing act is the reason why there’s such a thing as electronic music in the first place. Roskilde Festival starts and ends with experiences unlike most other.
When the gates to the festival site open at 5pm Thursday afternoon on 4 July, it’s going to happen with an extravagant party. Known under his stage name Vinnie Who, Niels Bagge has established himself as Denmark’s finest prince of pop, gracefully disco-dancing through the best moments in pop history.

”It’s crazy! Every time I think of it, my stomach turns. It is without a doubt the biggest challenge; I’m facing as a musician, and a fantastic opportunity to become a part of the Orange Stage legacy...

Ken Ring, Näääk & Nimo och Kartellen!

Svensk hiphop X3 till Bråvalla festival!

Ken Ring har varit med i gamet länge, gått igenom tuffa perioder och aldrig slutat utvecklas. Med kritikerrosade Akustiken i bagaget kommer han göra en känslostark och mångsidig spelning på Bråvalla festival.

Näääk & Nimo släppte tidigare år var sin soloplatta, Mannen utan mask respektive Till slut, som båda hyllades av en enig kritikerkår. Den slackerorienterade och tillbakalutade hiphopen kommer sitta perfekt i sommarvärmen.

Kartellen är Sveriges enda gangstarap-grupp och med Sebbe Staxx i spetsen intar de Bråvalla för en tung spelning. Gruppen släppte dessutom debutalbumet Ånger & kamp tidigare i år – hänsynslös och tänkvärd hiphop när den är som bäst.
