A big blast: Skovrock opens with Odbjerg and Aqua

Now it’s officially summer in Aalborg, because this weekend Skovrock finally kicks off.
The fantastic concerts under the treetops in Skovdalen begin with a bang — both Friday and Saturday.
Friday starts off with none other than Andreas Odbjerg (support acts: Magnus Münster and local ØJESTEN, who won the title of North Jutland Artist of the Year 2025 at this year’s Band Battle at Skråen).
At the time of writing, only a few tickets remain, so hurry if you want to secure an amazing concert experience with the pop charmer.
Saturday turns up the nostalgia to full blast as none other than AQUA takes the stage in Skovdalen (Support: 666. Local support: Dør I Dine Arme, who were finalists at the 2024 Band Battle).
The awesome concerts will continue like pearls on a string all summer long:

More News This Year
When you’re heading to a concert in Skovdalen this year, you can look forward to several tasty new additions.
There will be a brand-new Anarkist Bar serving craft beers from Anarkist.
Here’s what to expect on tap:
- Anarkist New England IPA (draft)

You’ll also find delicious cocktails from Nohrlund in all bars:

But that’s not all.
Skråen is bringing more of Nordkraft to the forest, and for the first time ever, guests at Skovrock can enjoy delicious food from TapaTapas during the concerts.
Profits Go to Charity
All profits from Skovrock, as always, go to local associations, clubs, and charitable causes.
Thanks to the efforts of hundreds of volunteers throughout the summer — and the support from guests attending the events and visiting the bars in Skovdalen — Skråens Venner distributes all proceeds after the summer to the local associations and clubs helping out behind the bars, along the fences, and with cleanup. Some of the funds also go to other charitable purposes.
After the summer of 2024, Skråens Venner donated a total of 1,739,000 DKK to charitable causes.
So when you buy a ticket to Skovrock, you’re not supporting a profit-driven company — on the contrary, every happy Skovrock guest helps support important community and humanitarian work, both locally and globally.
The amount has been donated to the following charitable organizations and associations:
- Kirkens Korshær
- Folkekirkens Nødhjælp
- Danmarksindsamlingen
- Bowlingklubben Stenhuset
- Aalborg Rock og Metal
- Triton Badmintonklub
- Nøvling IF
- Aalborg Chang
- AaB af 1885
- Gug Badmintonklub
- Roklubben Ægir
- Iconic Cheerleaders
- Vejgaard Boldklub
- Aalborg 89’ers
- Danish Nightingale Foundation
