Skanderborg Festival

Skanderborg Festival

The Skanderborg festival is an annual music festival held during the second weekend of August. Its scenic location, in a beech forest in the vicinity of Skanderborg, has given it the name "Denmark’s Most Beautiful Festival".

It covers many styles of music, such as rock, pop, folk, heavy metal, hip-hop and electronic.

The first festival was held in 1980 and was a one-day event with 7 bands and about 600 spectators.

In 2004, Skanderborg Festival was held for the 25th time and is now the second largest festival in Denmark. The festival gathered more than 45,000 people for the concerts, including 8,500 workers, most of them volunteers.
