COPENHAGEN EVENTS 2024
Denmark is one of the countries in the world that has the most festivals in relation to the relatively low population. The Danish capital is absolutely no exception. For Copenhagen, festivals are an essential part of the city's cultural life, and the many annual festivals help to make Copenhagen an even more attractive city to visit for tourists. Among the large selection of festivals in Copenhagen you will find everything from food festivals that pay homage to Nordic gastronomy, and music festivals for techno and house as well as rock and metal to human rights festivals and film festivals
In the first week of May, more than 500 Vikings from all over Europe flock to the Ribe Viking Centre.

You'll be able to experience how the Vikings lived and worked, visit all the stalls at the marketplace and see how good you are at trading!
