GrimFest offers the best in Danish music – both the emerging talents and big, established names. In addition to the music, you can experience Stand Up, poetry slams and creative initiatives as well as two large skate contests with participants from all over the country.
Foodies can look forward to a delicious food court or the opportunity to book a table at Restaurant GRIM Lauget. If you want a real festival experience, you can bring a tent or caravan and spend the night at the camp right next to the site.
Come and experience the unique, cozy atmosphere in the green surroundings of Grimhøjgaard.
Friday, October 3rd at 12:00 noon, ticket sales for GrimFest 2026 will open. Mark your calendar, find a seat at the computer – and be ready when the first tickets go on sale.
Partout tickets
Ticket sales follow the tiered model – the earlier you buy, the cheaper your ticket will be:
Children's day tickets
75 DKK + fee per piece.
A limited number per day.
Camp ticket
300 DKK + fee

Caravan
600 DKK + fee
Valid per caravan. You still need to have a camping ticket for yourself.
Parking
150 DKK + fee
Park right next to the space – valid all weekend. Limited number of spaces.
Wheelchair ticket / companion

Day tickets for GrimFest 2026 will be released later, when the music program takes shape. However, they can already promise one thing: You will get both the great concert experiences up close and new music names that you will dance to all night long.
This applies to GrimFest 2025 – there may be changes for GrimFest 2026
