Lily Allen is confirmed for Roskilde Festival as the independent, non-profit Danish festival today announces 25 new additions to its programme. Released in 2025, 'West End Girl' marked Lily Allen's first album in seven years and quickly became one of the most talked-about pop releases of the year. The intensely personal record dissects the collapse of a marriage with unflinching honesty and has received widespread critical acclaim. At Roskilde Festival, Allen will perform the album in full and in chronological order on the festival's main stage, Orange Stage, on Saturday 4 July. "We are thrilled to have Lily Allen perform at Roskilde Festival. 'West End Girl' marks a new chapter in her career and has received major international attention. With this album, she once again confirms her position as one of the defining voices in British pop," says Roskilde Festival's Head of Music, Thomas Sønderby Jepsen. Clipse, Napalm Death, Jade, and Jim Legxacy among major additions Today's announcement also includes the return of Clipse, the influential hip-hop duo consisting of Malice and Pusha T. In 2025, the brothers released the Grammy-nominated comeback album 'Let God Sort Em Out', their first project together since 2009. Furthermore, the newly announced artists include acclaimed Norwegian duo Smerz, rising UK rapper Jim Legxacy, pop artist Jade and grindcore pioneers Napalm Death. The line-up also features experimental pop artist Jane Remover and Miami-based producer Nick León, whose club-rooted sound draws on Latin American rhythms and psychedelic textures. Nourished By Time's left-field take on R&B and Kettama's high-energy club sets add extra range. Also joining the line-up are Congolese group Kin'Gongolo Kiniata with their punk-infused rumba, Thai band Khana Bierbood, blending psychedelic garage rock with local traditions, and Tanzanian duo The Zawose Queens, who bring gogo traditions into a contemporary context. Shapeshifting pop from Mexican Luisa Almaguer, uncompromising club music from Colombian producer Crrdr, and the experimental duo Titanic, rooted in Guatemala and Venezuela, underline the festival's global scope. With this announcement, 74 artists from 26 countries have now been confirmed for Roskilde Festival. The final programme will feature around 180 music acts alongside a wide range of art and activism, reflecting the festival's long-standing commitment to musical breadth and cultural exchange.
