The big stadium-size names are always eye catchers on a festival poster, regardless of the richness of music displayed below. Therefore, we are happy to present another headliner on this year's purple scream of a poster.
A piece of American music history awaits. JAY-Z is one of the most successful names ever in hip hop, and you can look forward to hear extracts from his voluminous catalogue. His latest concerts show an artist at the peak of his game, and Jay-Z performs at Roskilde with a fully equipped backing band. A world-class hip hop show awaits.
THE BIG ONES
Roskilde Festival drew up the lines early this year. Back in late November we announced RADIOHEAD. It has been 11 years since their last visit, and in the meantime they have become an institution on par with the British royal family and The Beatles. Furthermore, NEIL YOUNG, SLAYER, THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS and JUDAS PRIEST are ready to deliver king-size and wide-scale experiences.
