About Roskilde Festival
Roskilde Festival is the largest North European culture and music festival and has existed since 1971. We are a non-profit organisation consisting of about 25 full-time employees and thousands of volunteers. Each year, The Roskilde Festival Charity Society, which is the association behind Roskilde Festival, ensures that the profits from the festival are donated directly to humanitarian and cultural purposes.
Volunteers
During the festival itself the number of volunteers increases to about 25,000. These volunteers staff the festival stalls, build stages, provide camping security etc. Most volunteers are from cultural organisations and sports associations in the area. These clubs and societies run most of the stalls at the Festival Site, and with their great variety in goods and atmosphere the stalls contribute to the unique, intimate and exciting ambience at Roskilde Festival.
The management
At Roskilde Festival overall management and top level coordination is handled by four people (Henrik Rasmussen, Henrik Bondo Nielsen, Esben Danielsen, Rikke Øxner).
Board of directors
Roskilde Festival is by far the largest and most demanding of the events that The Roskilde Festival Charity Society is involved in. Henrik Rasmussen handles the coordination, structuring and budget planning for the many events, small and large, that The Roskilde Festival Charity Society is involved in.
