Since 1999, graffiti has been an important part of Roskilde Festival’s artistic identity. Back then three artists were invited to contribute. Now more than 100 international graffiti artists volunteer and come together in creating roughly 1.5 kilometres of fences and facades for you to enjoy during the festival.

The Graffiti Zone is an oasis of art in the middle of the festival site where the guests can withdraw for a moment and enjoy the amazing graffiti art from some of the best painters in the world.
