Roskilde 2026

[Dazrigby88]

Looking at the Cure's dates in Belfast on 28th and Opener on 3rd July, does this pretty much rule them out of Roskilde? They seem to have a day between dates, so theoretically, that only leaves the 1st July for them to play on the 1st at Roskilde, which ios the Wednesday. Seems unlikely...

The Cure played the Wednesday in 2012. Definitely possible.

Would hazard a guess they are nailed on. Such a Roskilde festival booking. 

 

Tocket sales start in a week or so, so maybe they will get announced.

Ahhh, so it's Wednesday to Saturday? May bad. Guess that makes them likely then if they're free on the 1st.

Roskilde, Opener and Werchter is a run many artists try to do as they are easy enough to fit in with the Wednesday starting them all

Guess we can rule these out then.. Guteed as I'd have loved Jack White 😞

[amfest12]

first names in two days.

what do you expect? when usually days split announced? 

 

really want to visit Denmark for the first time and put my eyes on both Copenhell and Roskilde and even consider do both or part of it.

so it will be great if anyone want to share how is Rosklide in general - vibes, stages, weather, prices, public transport as I'm not into camping and anything else

 

thanks

Does this festival usually sell out, and if so, when can we expect tickets to be gone?

They don't sell out as quick anymore, full weekend tickets didn't sell out to the last minute this year.

Ah that's good to know. Will make a good Xmas present if my son behaves himself! Ha

The Cure & The xx seem like good shouts. Also Ethel Cain (playing Hamburg on July 1st and Poland on the 3rd) & David Byrne (due to him being at Opener & having played Roskilde already in 2018)

If the Cure, the XX and David Byrne are there, we're in 🙂 

[mortand]

Yeah, good bets, velociraptor. There's usually some overlap with Opener and those four fit Roskilde very well.

 

And The Cure and David Byrne would appease the usual angry brigade, who always complaints about the lineup not having anything for the 'older' segment. 😀

what about Gorillaz? The War on Drugs?

wonder for undercard and heavier guitar possible acts..

Would like to see both of those there too! Add Geese, Slowdive, Big Thief and a few others, and we're really talking!

Lorde

Its usually only 1 headliner tomorrow isn't it? With a batch of other names. 

 

If so I would be surprised if it wasnt the cure announced. Seems daft to hold off, with them playing pretty much everywhere next summer.

2023 2 headliners (blur and QOTSA)

2024 no headliner

 

So could be anything tomorrow.

Part of the first 24.

 

Nothing much for me there, ones I would be interested in are already at Primavera (Gorillaz and Ethel Cain). 

 

Still open for The Cure on the Wednesday.
