Out of respect for the nine young men who died on 30 June 2000 at Roskilde Festival and their families, we made a memorial grove in the western end of the audience area for Orange Stage in 2001.
The sculpture made by Lars Skov Nielsen is engraved with the writing “how fragile we are”.
The music stages at Roskilde Festival are located at the inner part of the festival. Read about the scenes below and check the schedule for the complete overview of everything you can experience.
Apollo
Apollo is the stage at Roskilde Festival that houses all the music that thrives best in intimate club settings with visuals and deep frequencies at full tilt. Apollo is closed during the daytime, but at night the stage opens for its audiences and invites to music, party, and dancing until the early hours.
Arena
Arena is Roskilde Festival’s large concert arena, which year after year accumulates audiences in a very special community under the canopy. This year, we are expanding the area south of the stage. Look forward to greener surroundings, more space, and the opportunity to enjoy a refreshment in the shade of the treetops.
Avalon
Avalon embraces music of alle genres, from all corners of the world. The stage sets the frame for large, small, and even intimate experiences. This year, we offer a very special experience on Wednesday, where the concerts take place in the middle of the tent instead of up on the stage. You will find the stage in the north-eastern corner of the Inner Area.
Eos
Eos is our newest open-air stage, which debuted in 2024. In the first days of the festival, it is home to new Nordic shooting stars and in the last four days you will find a wide range of international names on stage. You will find the Eos stage in the western end of the Inner Area.
Gaia
You will find Gaia south of Orange Stage. Gaia is synonymous with both delicate and hard-hitting experiences, which work great in intimate settings. Gaia also guarantees encounters with the stars of tomorrow and niche artists who erase barriers and genres.
Gloria
Gloria is the smallest stage at Roskilde Festival. Here, you will enter the darkness and get close to the performers, who can be enjoyed in the amazing visual setting. This is where we experiment the most with genres and go from the most fragile sounds to the more extreme and physical expressions.
Orange Stage
Orange Stage is Roskilde Festival’s main stage and the centre for the large communities. Through the years, the stage has hosted the largest stars in the world and living legends. The iconic orange canopy is also our logo.
Platform in Art Zone is a stage for hybrid formats, performances, dance, art, and music. The dynamic setting brings the audience and artists close together for the many special, sensuous experiences.
