🏢 About the local organisation
Nibe Festival is an annual music Festival, which has existed for more than 30 years. The Festival is arranged by 4 employees with the overall responsibility, and 4000 volunteers, who are aged from 13 to 70 years of age.
The enthusiasm, team spirit and good humor is the main reason why people return year by year to volunteer and work at the festival. We work hard to make an exceptional festival for our guests - but we have a lot of fun and great times doing it.
During the Festival, 15.000 guests daily come to visit the forest,
which makes Nibe one of the most intimate and beautiful music Festivals in Denmark. Our guests come in all categories, from teenagers to grandparents bringing their grandchildren, and we are proud to offer a Festival that all of these people enjoy and attend simultaneously.
Furthermore, Nibe Festival is a nonprofit organization, and all profits are donated to local initiatives and to charity.
