Stay the whole week
Don’t miss the warm up—the days before the music starts—and be prepared to make new friends.
Don’t worry about roughing it
Everything you need is available: food, water, even Wi-Fi. Check out the Roskilde camping guide for details. (The city is easily within reach should you need to head back to civilization.)
Pack accordingly
Rain is always a possibility.
Copenhagen Airport
(CPH) is just a 30-minute train ride from the festival grounds. Set aside some time to check out Copenhagen, but don’t leave Roskilde without visiting the Viking Ship Museum.
