Roskilde Festival spokeswoman, Christina Bilde, said: “It’s an amazing feeling to have a sold out festival once again. We can’t wait to welcome the thousands of guests, and we’re happy that 80,000 festival-goers have chosen the full experience. They will be part of a very special community for eight full days. The ticket sales are also a positive indication that we can once again expect a healthy profit to be donated in full to charity after the festival.”
