Additional entrances

Previously, there has been two entrances to Roskilde Festival: one facing east and one facing west. But in 2011 the festival-goers can choose between five entrances all around the camp site. And they can start choosing already from Wednesday 1 December when the ticket sale starts for Roskilde Festival 2011. In connection with the ticket sale, the festival introduces entrance booking where the festival-goers can choose which of the five entrances they want to enter through.

New stage

In 2011 there will be another stage to visit at Roskilde Festival. The new stage is called Gloria, and will host smaller acts in an intimate setting.

Getting there

Roskilde is keen for festival goers to arrive by public transport, to reduce CO2 emissions. They make these suggestions...

By train

EUrail covers all of Europe. The festival-goers just have to pick the destination, then the EUrail ticket makes available the train ride to Roskilde. A discount is granted to everyone under the age of 26. DSB takes care of the majority of the Danish festival-goers' transport to the festival. During Roskilde Festival a train station opens at the festival area so the audience can easily get to and from the town of Roskilde.

By bus

Swebus Express takes care of bus transport from Norway, Sweden and northern Germany. For the last couple of years, Swebus Express has taken festival-goers to Roskilde Festival, and in 2011 Swedes and Norwegians can go from Stockholm and Oslo, respectively, and straight to the festival area. City-Trafik supplies shuttle busses between Roskilde Station and the festival area. Bus lines are going both to Camping East and West.
