Roskilde Festival is a non-profit event, and we donate all profits to charitable causes.
When you buy a ticket or volunteer, you help shape a better future for others – especially children and young people.
That is why we have just donated a total of DKK 1,050,000 to 20 voluntary communities in Roskilde Municipality.
These initiatives, each in their own way, create new opportunities and stronger communities for children and young people. They do so every day in sports halls, on stages, in clubhouses, and across cultures.
We believe that the local enthusiasts who dedicate their energy to making a difference deserve support so their commitment can grow and reach even more people.
Among the 20 initiatives is Roskilde Basketball Club, where young coaches and referees create communities that embrace diversity.
In the village of Ågerup, children gather for e-sports and social activities arranged by Ågerup og Omegns Landsbyråd, which strengthens both friendships and self-esteem.
Steps Ahead brings together young and experienced musicians in open jam sessions and workshops, connecting generations through music.
Danish School Chess uses chess to open new paths into community life, including for children with autism and school absenteeism. And in Hal 12 in the Musicon district, young people find a creative free space by learning how to scratch and mix vinyl.
