Roskilde Festival offers everyone with a ticket to Quart Festival in Norway the possibility of gaining free access to Roskilde Festival.
Quart Festival recently cancelled this year's festival and declared the festival itself bankrupt.
Roskilde Festival is sad to have lost a great sparring partner and is also worried about the festival-goers who had already bought tickets to this year's Quart Festival.
Therefore, everyone with a ticket to Quart Festival is offered the possibility of exchanging it to a Roskilde Festival ticket – free of charge.
A multi-day ticket to Quart will give access to a full Roskilde Festival week, while a one-day ticket to Quart will give access to Roskilde Festival on Sunday 6 July – which is the only day when one-day tickets to Roskilde Festival are available.
Interested festival-goers have to contact info@roskilde-festival.dk with their personal data and specification of Quart ticket type. Afterwards, they have to bring their Quart ticket to Roskilde Festival's entrance stalls. Free access to Roskilde Festival is only possible if a person owns an original Quart Festival ticket.
A sad loss
"It is both regrettable and thought-provoking when old and established festivals suddenly disappear. The festival realm is working on most varation and width in the supply of live music – and the loss of Quart Festival is definitely noticeable. We hope that this initiative will help all Quart-goers to have a summer full of music," says Roskilde Festival's spokesman, Esben Danielsen.
It all starts on Sunday
Roskilde Festival's camping areas open and the warm-up period starts on Sunday 29 June at 08.00, and the music on the big stages begins on Thursday 3 July from 17.00.
