Community Camping

Become part of a unique community where the vision of a cleaner festival goes hand in hand with the best parties.

SCROLL DOWN

Roskilde Festival is about music, friends and camping.

In our Community Camping areas, you live in camps where everyday life is shaped by the people who stay there. Through shared activities, initiatives and responsibility for the area, camping becomes something you actively take part in. You apply to live in a specific area.

Before you pack your bag, it’s worth stopping by our practical camping information. Here, you’ll get a clear idea of what’s good to bring along, what’s better left at home, and how to set yourself up for camp life. A few smart choices in advance can make your days on the campsite a lot easier.

Roskilde Road Trip

Roskilde Road Trip brings together participants travelling to the festival from abroad who want to share both the journey and camping life with others. The area is designed to make it easy to meet new people – whether you’re travelling solo or with friends.

During the festival, participants share experiences, tips and ideas about travelling to and staying at Roskilde Festival. Road Trip Guides are available if you need help before or during the festival.

Settle'n Share

In Settle’n Share, camps actively share experiences with their neighbours and invite each other in throughout the festival. Everyday life in the area is shaped by open activities that are easy to join – even if you don’t know anyone in advance.

All camps commit to hosting at least one open activity during the festival. This could be anything from morning gatherings and workshops to readings or shared parties connected to the camp’s theme and contributing to life in the area.

Clean Out Loud

Clean Out Loud is the largest Community Camping area, where we work together to keep the festival clean and tidy without compromising The Orange Feeling.

Throughout the festival, camps take part in shared clean-up initiatives – including daily Trash Mobs: festive clean-up parades where cleaning happens together with music and good vibes. The area also hosts ongoing activities and events created by the camps themselves.

Here, you’ll experience the best the festival has to offer while staying in one of the cleanest areas of Roskilde Festival.

Leave No Trace

In Leave No Trace, camps initiate activities that can be seen and felt in everyday life in the area. When ideas arise, they’re shared directly with neighbours.

During the week, this might include shared collections, competitions for the tidiest camp, or practical solutions like distributing pocket ashtrays or running shared solar-powered charging stations. Camps are responsible for their own initiatives and use the area as a place to test new ideas alongside everyday camping life.

Common Ground

In Common Ground, camps gather around shared activities inspired by folk high school traditions and neighbourliness. Daily life might include morning singing, mini golf with the neighbouring camp, karaoke with a live band and other open activities across the area.

The area is created by students from Roskilde Festival Folk High School, who organise activities throughout the week and invite camps to contribute their own initiatives – from shared dances and communal meals to clothes swaps and clean-up activities.

Dream City

Dream City is a user-driven Community Camping area where camps shape both the space and the festival experience together – from early preparations in spring to shared clean-up when the festival ends.

Some camps build physical structures, others contribute through activities, events or by organising the community – what matters is taking part.

Handicamp

In Handicamp, camping life is organised with a focus on accessibility and practical support. The area is for those who need specific physical or mental accommodations – and for the friends, family or helpers they stay with during the festival.

Facilities include access to power for charging assistive devices, toilets and showers with ramps and lifts, and practical help with tasks such as setting up tents and handling waste. The area is quieter at night and accommodates both tents and a limited number of campers.

A cleaner Roskilde

When we live together at Roskilde Festival, we must all help take care of our beautiful festival grounds.

This means leaving every area clean and free of the items you brought with you. It also means minimizing our impact on the planet, even while we’re enjoying the festival.

You make a huge difference when you reduce your consumption, sort your waste, and reuse as much as possible.  

  • Reduce means bringing as little as possible from home
  • Sort means helping to keep the festival clean by sorting your waste at our waste stations
  • Reuse means taking your belongings home and using them again
