Blawan, Tirzah, Julia Holter Travis Scott, Nicola Cruz and more have been confirmed for Roskilde Festival 2019.

The non-profit Danish music festival is returning next summer for its 49th edition and shared the first phase of names ahead of this year’s ticket sale which goes live on October 30.

With over 180 acts set to perform across eight stages during the course of the festival, Roskilde's initial announcement features favoured names from genres such as hip hop, techno, alternative r‘n’b and more, with plenty more announcements still to come.

Both Tirzah and Travis Scott released acclaimed albums earlier this year, with Tirzah’s debut album ‘Devotion’ discussed in-depth during our conversation with the British artist back in August.

Roskilde Festival 2019 takes place June 29 - July 6.

Tickets for next year’s edition go on sale on October 30. Head over to the Roskilde website to find out more.
