Roskilde Festival 2023 + Naked Run

[sillywong]

I’ve heard there is a livestream for the naked run but this is usually deleted very quickly. As such we should all make every effort to cap it. I use ‘screenbits’ software which is only around $10 on the Microsoft store and it works a treat. Rarely ever crashes and you can record in 60fps if you want.

Regarding nudity, I haven’t actually seen that much of it over the years. Not sure how the shower arrangements are now, but at some point (might still be so), there were two shower options. One were you could pay for a hot shower in a private cubicle, and a communal cold water shower for free. In the free section you could happen upon naked people of mixed gender although many would shower in swimwear. But that area could still be worth checking out for nude sightings.

The bathing lake is also a place where nudity might happen, people are sunbathing there as well and some might be topless.

Naked run obviously provides nudity.

Other than that it’s mainly random occurrences.

Thank you for your insight

My impression is that the guys are more than willing to strip off but the girls are more hesitant. I think that cameras everywhere puts them off, nobody cares about naked guys, but the girls risk getting their pictures on the net for eternity. Also the rise in body issues contributes, girls today are hesitant to even be naked around other girls. To the point where they’ve stopped showering after physical education classes in school.

The last sentences sound crazy for me.
I really thought that nordic people had a totally different vision of nudity than the other European countries
There are some tv shows there with total nudity that are just impossible to see in other countries
So, very surprised to read what you wrote

So don’t buy a ticket to see naked girls, but enjoy the festival and music as it’s usually a great time.

Ticket already bought haha
Yeah of course, after these years of restriction, I wanted above all to finally discover this so famous festival and its atmosphere
the rest is bonus and not the main reason

I dont think scandinavians have more nudist habbits than germans, spaniards, frenches...

12 women signed up for the Naked Run as of earlier today. They need three to reach the maximum 15. If I remember correctly, that's much better than last year.

I’ve used ActivePresenter for screen recording, free program. Used it for multi hour lectures

Thanks but for the following year, how to know in advance when the Naked run will take place?
Who decides that and when the date is chosen and publicly announced?

I’m not talking about that. I mean actual showers that were communal and free, but cold water only. The showers looked like the ones in shower songs though, basic containers with sprinklers above.

Used to be lots of people using them in various states of undress, but I haven’t been near them in more than a decade so not sure if they still exist.

Used to be a regular at the festival for several years, but not been there in a while now.

There is a difference between society’s view on nudity and individual willingness to be naked, and the gap is widening.

In general, nudity is not seen as dirty or unnatural, and this is reflected in movies and television among other things.
But individuals are less comfortable being naked among others more now than before, probably due to various factors, but body image issues and the risk of being photographed are probably two important ones.

This is seen in how especially girls/women act these days, almost no toplessness on the beach, refusing to shower in school etc.
There are exceptions of course, and I still believe Scandinavia is more relaxed than many other parts of the world, but it isn’t like it used to be 20 years ago, sadly.

It is hard to find nude beaches in sweden that are not isolated, and some of them are divided by gender. In France you have a hole city for nudists, Spain you can see naked people in regular beaches of barcelona and ibiza, but Italy they have more prudity, neve heard much about events there...
