We provide young entrepreneurs with the opportunity to test and develop innovative green solutions at Roskilde Festival and other temporary platforms
The world is crying out for change. Resources are running out, waste is piling up, and we can't consume our way out of the climate crisis.
That’s why we’ve gathered 27 entrepreneurs who are all working to challenge the status quo and show how we can produce, use, and reuse in new ways.
In the small corner between Clean Out Loud and Dream City in Camping East, you’ll find the Circular Lab. Every day during the festival, you can experience how waste is turned into aesthetic materials, get a taste of the future, and discover how old tents can be transformed into new clothes. Everything is in play – from upcycling and textile innovation to hands-on experiments and unexpected ideas – and you can be among the first to try them out.
These aren’t final solutions – but with your input, the entrepreneurs get one step closer to creating results that can inspire new ways of thinking about resources. And along the way, you’ll meet some of the people daring to rethink the system. Join in, get inspired, and help shape a more responsible future.
Opening hours:
Sunday, 29 June – Thursday, 4 July: 11:00–15:30
Friday, 5 July – Saturday, 6 July: 11:00–14:00
Check out the highlights from the Circular Lab at Roskilde Festival 2024:
With 130,000 residents, Roskilde Festival can be compared to a larger city. Additionally, the temporariness of the festival community makes it a unique and forgiving platform for testing new sustainable solutions that have the potential to change societal behavior.
Entrepreneurs will gain a unique opportunity to gather knowledge and data on how their solution performs. The ambition is to support future green entrepreneurs by creating frameworks where they can challenge and test their specific solutions in a flexible and vast laboratory filled with people and opportunities.
