For four days you’ve been partying, relaxing in the camp, catching up with friends old and new – and soaking up concerts on Eos and Gaia.
Now it’s time to plug in the big stages and welcome you to a programme that, until Saturday, offers no less than 140 artists.
As always, Roskilde Festival presents performances created especially for this unique setting – the biggest festival in Northern Europe. Here are some of the standout shows we think you shouldn’t miss:
Big Fan – the brand-new project from Mija Milovic and Barbro – breaks down the barrier between stage and audience. You're invited to co-create the vibe and take part in shaping the energy of the performance. They're playing not once, but twice on Friday – their very first shows together as Big Fan!
Friday 4 July at 11:30 and 13:10, Gloria
Imagine a midnight ritual under the open sky, where voices blend with the oldest languages of nature. Seäjvvuot is a rare collaboration between Katarina Barruk and Elina Waage Mikalsen – two powerful Sámi artists who bring the Northern joik tradition to life in an atmosphere that feels like a dream.
Thursday 3 July at 13:00, Platform
They’ve shared the stage before, but never like this. Danish John Cxnnor and Norwegian Witch Club Satan are joining forces for a one-off show that promises intensity and full immersion.
Think rave among ruins, metal under moonlight, and an energy that strikes like lightning. A nocturnal mass of mayhem you won’t soon forget.
Friday 4 July at 23:45, Gaia
We’re staying in the heavy zone. Two of Denmark’s most uncompromising underground metal acts – Kollapse & Grava – are teaming up for their live debut. Expect a massive wall of sound: raw, unpredictable and rumbling like a volcano coming to life before your eyes.

Astrid Sonne takes to Eos with her most ambitious live setup yet. Joined by visual collaborators from both Copenhagen and London, she unfolds her music in a setting of light, video and choreography – every element carefully shaped for this one night.
Her sound moves fluidly between electronic textures, classical structures and a more open, song-based approach as heard on her acclaimed album Great Doubt. On stage, it all comes together in a finely tuned performance where sound and visuals work as one – letting composition and pop merge on their own terms.
Saturday 5 July at 19:30, Eos
Gilli and Benny Jamz join forces on the Orange Stage for their very first concert as Kenny – the project that instantly topped the Danish charts and painted the local rap scene orange.
Together, the two rap stars are behind Denmark’s most streamed album of 2024. They’re bringing a full live band to turn up the volume on tracks like “Reposado” and “Booty Up”. With a sonic and visual universe inspired by South Park’s Kenny – the orange-clad underdog who always gets back up – this show is built to go off.
Saturday 5 July at 20:00, Orange Stage
