More acts have been announced for the 48th edition of Roskilde Festival in Denmark, which takes place from Saturday 30th June until Saturday 7th July 2018.

The eleven new names today are Gorillaz (live), David Byrne, First Aid Kit, Fleet Foxes, Stormzy, Chelsea Wolfe, Clutch, Kakkmaddafakka, Omni, Scour, and Slaves.

Head of Programme Anders Wahrén says: "Both Gorillaz and David Byrne embody the spirit of Roskilde Festival's music profile. They're both exceptionally curious and open-minded, always on the lookout for new things to explore and incorporate in their music. We're thrilled to have them as part of the same line-up combined with younger acts like Stormzy and First Aid Kit."

They join the previously announced acts, who are Bruno Mars along with C.V. Jorgensen, Mogwai, Vince Staples, Myrkur, Nelson Can, Oh Sees, Yasuaki Shimizu, Watain, and Wilkinson. The full line-up will be approximately 175 acts performing on eight stages, so there'll be many more acts announced over the coming months.

Tickets on sale, priced at 2100 DKK for a full festival ticket, which is for 8 days and includes camping. Day tickets for any of Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday are priced at 1050 DKK.
