The Cure will be performing at Roskilde Festival in Denmark next year.
It’s another addition to Robert Smith’s growing 2019 summer of European festival appearances, which to-date also include Rock Werchter, NOS Alive and Exit to name but three. “The Cure are in every way the perfect closing act for next year’s edition of Roskilde Festival,” the event’s head of programme Anders Wahrén purrs.
“They have an immense back catalogue of hits and beloved classics from the past 40 years, and their remarkably close relationship with our audience will surely create a special and very moving atmosphere.”
“When they asked to play the final weekend show on Orange Stage, we didn’t hesitate for a second. They can play for hours on end if they want to, and I won’t miss a second of it.”
