In 2007 artists like BigBang, Sivert Høyem, Adjágas and Blood, Sweat & Tears played at the festival. Vinjerock got its name from the famous Norwegian poet, Aasmund Olavsson Vinje, who built the first cabin at Eidsbugarden, and gave the surrounding mountains their name, Jotunheimen. There was not a festival in 2011. To allow the grounds to be expanded thus protecting the vulnerable mountain nature of the area, the organizers received funds in 2008 earmarked the establishment of a park on the banks if the river Bygdin. A festival took place between 19 - 21 July 2012. In addition, the 2019 festival took place July 18, 2019 – July 20, 2019 and included ten bands playing a set list of 10-14 songs per band. (en)
