Roskilde Festival has announced the first 18 acts for its 2027 edition, led by Tame Impala, Caroline Polachek and the Patti Smith Quartet. The announcement sets out the event’s musical range and includes Tame Impala among the major names, with the group expected to play only a handful of European festivals that summer.

The festival’s 55th edition will run from 26 June to 3 July in Denmark. Other announced acts include Kacey Musgraves, Ezra Collective, Suki Waterhouse and Lambrini Girls; organisers say almost 200 acts will make up the full line-up. The article also recalls last year’s sound clash between Gorillaz and Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats, which led organisers to stop the latter’s set after half an hour.
