The 'Tons of Rock' festival, which took place last summer at Ekebergsletta, has unveiled impressive financial results, earning a net profit of 45.4 million kroner, which is over one million kroner more than the previous year. According to the festival’s annual accounts, this financial growth allowed the organizers to propose a dividend payout of 44 million kroner. The event featured prominent performances from major rock bands, including Green Day, Muse, and Kaizers Orchestra, contributing to its success.

In addition to the reported profits, the festival's revenue rose from 304.9 million kroner in 2024 to 315.8 million kroner in 2025, indicating a positive trend in ticket sales and overall attendance. This growth reflects the festival’s ability to attract larger audiences and secure lucrative contracts with renowned artists. The increased earnings also suggest a robust recovery and resilience in the live entertainment sector, especially after the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The proposed dividends could be a sign of healthy financial management and effective growth strategies implemented by the festival organizers. As 'Tons of Rock' continues to gain prominence in Norway’s music landscape, it sets a precedent for other events in the industry, showing that with the right lineup and execution, music festivals can thrive and provide substantial returns for their stakeholders.
