They call it the Scandi Glastonbury. But Denmark’s eight day Roskilde Festival, located 30 minutes outside of the capital city of Copenhagen, puts some of our British festivals to shame.
For one, the 130,000 capacity festival is entirely in aid of charity, and every single festival worker is a volunteer. It’s also shamefully sustainable. Sure, we make a solid effort to “leave no trace” at our festivals now, but when you see the number of bikes that neatly line the entrance to Roskilde each day (I’m talking thousands), you’ll realise we’re still far behind.
