Robyn to headline Roskilde Festival 2019

She’ll join the likes of Tirzah and Travis Scott in Denmark next summer

Swedish star Robyn will headline next year's edition of Roskilde Festival.

The new headliner announcement comes weeks after Roskilde unveiled the first artists locked in for the 2019 edition, with big names such as Tirzah, Julia Holter, Blawan and Travis Scott already confirmed.

Back in October Robyn dropped her first album in eight years, 'Honey'. The new release was well-received by both fans and critics and is sure to be featured heavily throughout the pop icon's performance.

With over 180 acts set to perform across eight stages during the course of the festival, Roskilde's initial announcement featured favoured names from genres such as hip hop, techno, alternative r‘n’b and more. This year's edition featured the likes of Four Tet, Gorillaz and Massive Attack.

Roskilde Festival 2019 takes place June 29 - July 6.

Tickets for next year’s edition are on sale now, head over to the Roskilde website to find out more.
