According to Anders Wahrén, the festival’s program manager, it has long been a wish among festival participants to be allowed to experience the American rapper.
– Despite his relatively young age, Kendrick Lamar is a modern legend, and he has been high on our participants’ wish list since he debuted at Roskilde Festival in 2013.
– He is a showman, but also a politically committed artist with something on his mind, and he hits a wide audience without hesitation, says Anders Wahrén in the press release.
In addition to Kendrick Lamar, several big names have already been announced for next year’s Roskilde Festival.
The festival will feature The Strokes, Tyler, The Creator, Faith No More, Jada, Thee Stallion, The Whitest Boy Alive, Thomas Helmig and TLC, among others.
Roskilde Festival 2021 will run from 26 June to 3 July.
Earlier this year, Roskilde Festival was able to announce that all partout tickets for the festival were sold out.
This is partly due to the fact that many have chosen to transfer their ticket from this year’s festival to next year.
In the new year, the remaining one-day tickets to the festival will go on sale.
