The 2007 edition took place between 12 and 15 July. At the 2008 festival, two people were found dead near a bus.[1] Initial reports suspect carbon monoxide poisoning as being the cause of death.

The festival is known for its bright atmosphere and a phenomenal festival camp near the festival area. The Norway Rock Festival is unofficially known as "Norway's response to Woodstock", "Norway's best rock festival" and "the summer's most beautiful festival adventure" by the press and the audience who return year after year to experience the festival's peculiar rock soul where freedom, independence and pure love of proper music permeates every inch of the area.[citation needed]
