It has been reported that Denmark’s Roskilde Festival has announced the final additions to its 50th anniversary event with scheduled performances from Kendrick Lamar, Haim, The Strokes and Charli XCX. The Danish festival announced an additional 110 acts to its June 24 – July 4 festival.

“With this year’s line-up, we do what we’ve always done: look ahead,” said Roskilde Festival’s head of programme Anders Wahrén in a release. “It has been important to us that festival no. 50 points to the future, and that is why 2020 will feature the lowest average age ever among the headliners. You don’t have to have 20 years of experience to perform on the main stage. That era is over.”

Also joining the 2020 edition are The Roots, DaBaby, Dave, Ride, Brittany Howard, Bicep, Big Thief, Tinariwen, Perfume Genius and Waxahatchee.

Roskilde Festival is 100% non-profit. All profits are donated to social and cultural charities by the Roskilde Festival Charity Society. Since its beginning in the 70s, Roskilde Festival has generated more than €55 million (roughly $60.3 million US) to charity.
