Roskilde Festival has its roots in a youth culture who dreamed of changing the world and did something active to make that change happen. We see the same kind of commitment today. All over the world young people are gathering, shouting out, calling for action. They require sustainability – both socially, economically and climatically.
We wish to support that commitment with our open call.
