I just hope he comes to America, before he comes all the way to Denmark! Haha, I love the name though 'The Beautiful Experience' he is taking it back to the 90's! Hahaha!

I have hopes to see him THIS YEAR! I for sure, am going to make it happen THIS YEAR! Even if that means going all the way to Denmark!

Oh wow!!

I'm one of Prince biggest fans, and have listened to his music since he came on the scene, but I've never seen him in concert. My wish is to someday see the man in concert, here in America.

Uhm...why haven't you?

Let's hope the setlist includes new music from a new album. The days of paying for flights and hotels to hear Purple Rain and Let's Go Crazy are over. And I don't want to hear any Sly Stone or Michael Jackson covers, either. If I'm paying proper money, I want Prince music.....and new Prince music, at that. If he wants to throw out Purple Rain at the end, that's fine, but a new setlist is BADLY needed.

I feel you, I'm bringing some people to see Prince and he needs to do PRINCE because else my friends are going to be like, so this is the old dude you've been hyping up xD Lol...

But I'm still going to Denmark to see him, I heard something about him going to Norway as well? I hope he does the NPG festival in Denmark like in 2011 but that it doesn't rain this time around...

It's Gonna Be A BEAUTIFUL Night

Prince is gonna play at the Smukfest Festival on August 7th, 2013

THE BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE: PRINCE OF BEAUTIFUL PARTY

It is with immense pleasure and pride Denmark's Most Beautiful Festival can now present one of the international music scene's biggest names as a performer at this year's festival. Prince has even wanted to give a concert in the beautiful setting of beech scene in Skanderborg - and do it under the title "The Beautiful Experience". With the desire to do its part to create a very special and particularly beautiful day in Skanderborg. Princes concert at Denmark's Most Beautiful Festival will be the last plank in the first four festival, Wednesday 7 august. Prince released his first album back in 1978. He really broke through in the '80s with "MASTERPIECES" such as "1999", "Purple Rain", "Parade" and "Sign O 'The Times".

As a performer's Prince in a class of its own - and will Smukfest in the company of his amazing band NPG, which include count the Danish bassist Ida Nielsen. Smukfest 2013 from 7 - 11 August, with warm up and Live Camp in love from the fourth - 6 august. Info Beautiful ManiFest tickets and accommodation facilities you will find here.

Well.. Why is that ? He played US a LOT. Why didnt u go ?

Believe it or not, none of my friends were into Prince, and since I'm a naturally shy person, I was not about to go alone. I've been to many concerts of other entertainers that I've liked, but never to the concert of the entertainer that is my favorite, how ironic is that?

That's a really long way out for Prince.

I say he cancels for personal reasons from having a falling out with Andy Allo or whoever replaces her between now and then. I'm not joking.

Didn't Andy say that she was going to be playing over there too, so doubt they will fall out any time soon.

Fans of Mayte, Manuela, Bria, Andy---they all have those doubts.

Yes! I was near there! Thanks bro! I rather go to the one in the States first of course! Haha, than Denmark! But I appreciate the hopes! Haha

phhhwww bought my ticket now! and it's kinda pricey and takes a bit of travelling.

So please: no rain, no next-standing fool saying Tom Jones' original Kiss is better no cancellations and please no drunk tall ass with an attitude in front of me...

Ill take Sly and Michael Jackson's tributes, and I still dont mind being the one furthest away from the scene... as long as the sound is good, people are happy and Mr. Prince is ready to partyyyyyyyy

she believed in fairytales and princes...he believed in rock'n'roll

Any one know how the accommodation works at this festival? I just want to go for the Prince concert. Is the locale so remote that I need to plan to camp? I don't speak Danish, and I couldn't even figure out if their camping offers were for the night or for the whole festival (I think for the whole festival)? what are the rest of you doing for accommodation? Any tips/advice?

lenis said:

I couldn't find a lot of info on the website but it does say that there will be buses from the festival site to the train station in Skanderborg. The camping offers are for tents that you can rent I think. You can also camp there for free (I know a friend of mine does this every year). Other than that it should be possible to call a cab. If I decide on going I have no idea what I'm gonna do yet. The website doesn't have a lot of info - quite annoying for people who hasn't been there before

Thats extremely helpful! Thank you Lenis!

Gonna have to disagree with you there. You have to remember that most people haven't seen Prince 100 times. I've never seen him in my life.. I missed him in London in '07, and couldn't get tickets to Hop Farm in '11. I'm dying to see him this year.. but if he came to the UK and didn't play his hits, especially Purple Rain, I'd be pissed.. and so would 90% of the other people who'd paid for tickets.

The Montreux set could be far less "mainstream", because the Jazz Festival is for serious music lovers and they'll love a bit of random unknown jazz funk.. but this festival in Denmark is most likely gonna be full of pop fans who just wanna sing and dance to Little Red Corvette and 1999.

Maybe you die hard fans should stop spending thousands flying around the world to see the same show, and let the people in those countries have their turn.. I mean, how often does he play festivals? Especially in Denmark

Have to agree...we often forget that the majority of his fans wants to hear the hits. They are in fact great songs, to . Like it has been said many times, if you go to a Stones concert you wanna hear satisfaction...

So we have some classics, some hits and a great show.

Then there is montreux or aftershows where he will surely play more of the other stuff...

Think thats not bad...

Guys trying to by tickets, but keeps taking me to a non English site. How much is a 5 day ticket? And is that with accommodation? If not how much is a one day ticket (prince date) with camping? Thanks

A 5-day ticket is 1995 DKK + fee (about 268 euro + fee). This is with camping at the festival. A one day ticket is 875 DKK + fee ( about 117 euro + fee) and you will also be able to camp at the festival. I'm quite sure that you don't need a ticket to camp at Skanderborg cause a friend of mine does it every year without attending.

Heres a link to the ticket site in English
