The most fun camps Roskilde Festival


A total of four were the years he enjoyed festivals in Denmark. Skanderborg, Bork Havn, Sonderborg, ... the truth is that I was in a pile and everyone has a good atmosphere that makes them special, different from the rest of Europe. When you look back I keep a very special memory of Roskilde Festival, a festival that takes place every year between the first and second week of July in the southwest of the Scandinavian country. The poster acojonante always (in fact in 2007 playing Red Hot Chili Peppers, Muse, The Killers, Arctic Monkeys, Bjork and a thousand more) and the festive atmosphere is scary. What most struck me was the amount of thematic camps had. From trolls to characters from Lord of the Rings, police gay to George Michael, football players ... There was everything! With this little post attempt to pay tribute to some of the most fun camps in recent years the festival. Curves coming Hold on ...
Camp Find Wally:
What could be more surreal than a legion of Wallys, and a warlock purple, jumping up and down with a Coldplay concert? Almost nothing!. Interestingly that's what happened in 2009, the year that the camp Where's Wally won the "Camp of the Year" awarded annually by the jury of the Roskilde Festival organization.
Everything was based solely on finding Wally. And many are still those who remember their way through the festival that year. They were everywhere! Seeing Oasis, Nick Cave, Pete Doherty ... The horny character of the striped shirts did not miss one.
Camp Star Wars:
The great rivals in 2009 of Where's Wally Camp was the camp of Star Wars. This "camp" is exactly what you imagine: a group of fans of the Star Wars where there from Boba Fett to a Han Solo, a master Yoda, Darth Vader, various stormtroopers ... Well, this was a haven for nerds Danes. If you do not believe me take a look at this video ... go tribe!
Roskilde Open Camp
Bjorn Borg and John McEnroe would orgullosísimos of Roskilde Open, a camp where the 18 component members pose with costumes that refer to tennis players of the 70's classic. One of the data that most caught my attention is the fact that these guys to design a sound system that was nourished by the energy generated by a variety of solar panels. You do not see every day ...
Camp Hasselhoff
A true classic in any Danish festival. Site I've ever been, a place where there was a camp focused on the series The Baywatch. The "dresscode" is more than obvious, jackets, swimsuits red sunglasses and white poles. Another thing is that members of these camps get digest alcohol in the same way that the friend David Hasselhoff.
Here's an example of Camp Hasselhoff Roskilde Festival 2008:
Oldies Camp
12 years ago Norwegians knew German and 2 to 3 Sweden. Together they created a great camp focused on paying tribute to the older audience of such festivals. In the video clip you attach sounds 'Ace Of Spades' by Motorhead, probably the best song that could bring one of the "camps" emblematic of the previous edition of Roskilde Festival.
Camp Brokeback
In "Brokeback Mountain" Ennis lost to Jack, but this did not mean that the legend of Ang Lee's film was to be seen in 2005. A group of Danish, with all the "good" intention of profiting from dress jeans to tie, decided to launch a festival called "Camp Brokeback." So far have emerged as one of the most well known camping festival, and such is their level of extroversion that have lived so geeks situations like the one seen below:
Camp Brides:
And finally we present the Brides Camp, a camp formed only by women in which all but one (which is disguised as a priest), they dressed in bridal gowns. His mission in the festival is simple: find the ideal husband and marry reached a grand celebration that takes place every year in this curious camp.
