The Danish band Aphaca is set to return to Roskilde Festival this summer, moving from last year's performance on the Arena stage to the festival's largest stage, Orange. This change highlights the band's rapid rise in popularity, having transitioned from a school band to a widely recognized act with hits like 'Smelter under månen' and 'En drøm om et menneske'. The festival organizers announced this news alongside the introduction of 28 new acts for this year's lineup.

Last year, Aphaca's performance gained attention even before their set began, with a massive crowd forming outside the Arena stage, leading to reports of festival-goers on top of portable toilets to catch a glimpse. The excitement for the band was palpable, with the audience actively singing along to their songs, which deeply touched the band. This enthusiastic response played a significant role in their trajectory, helping them secure a slot on the festival's main stage this year.

The move to the Orange stage indicates not only the band's growing fanbase but also the festival's commitment to showcasing emerging talent. With Aphaca's return, there is anticipation for another memorable performance, reflecting the vibrant music scene in Denmark and the increasing strength of local artists making their mark on international stages.
