Smukfest 2025 is set to welcome music lovers of all ages, differentiating itself from festivals that cater predominantly to younger audiences. The festival, running from August 6th to August 10th in Skanderborg, boasts a diverse program of 130 concerts, with something for everyone in the family.
Headlining the event are international stars like Will Smith, 50 Cent, and Iggy Pop. Will Smith, known for both his acting and music career, will bring his charm and hits like “Gettin’ Jiggy Wit It” to the Beech Stages on Thursday evening. 50 Cent, the rapper who rose to fame with “In Da Club,” is also scheduled to perform on the Beech Stages on Wednesday night. Iggy Pop, the 78-year-old punk rock icon, will close out the recommendations for the parents and take the Star Stage on Saturday evening.
Danish artist Gilli, a popular rapper among younger generations, will perform on the Beech Stages on Friday. With over 1.6 billion streams on Spotify, Gilli’s concert promises to be a major draw. Even parents might want to check out Gilli.
Aphaca, a band known for their cross-generational appeal, will perform on the Star Stage on Wednesday afternoon. Their music, a mix of Folkeklubben and Lars Lilholt Band, has resonated with Danes of all ages.
