It's finally summer, and Copenhagen is gearing up for a season full of festivals. Forget about mud and warm tents and enjoy the many cool - and different - music experiences in the city.

My Copenhagen: Waqas Qadri from Outlandish has a nostalgic view of the city. He often stops by his childhood neighborhood in Frederiksberg, loves Copenhagen’s back-alley scenes, and there’s one particular shawarma he can’t live without.

If you love running but miss having company, there are plenty of running groups in Copenhagen. Here, you run together and then enjoy a coffee, a beer, or a pastry afterward. Take the Metro there and arrive with fresh legs.

My Copenhagen: Health and running expert Michelle Kristensen loves being able to run through all of Copenhagen’s little natural gems—and prefers to end her run with a dip in the harbor.

My Copenhagen: Mathilde Prins, founder of the slow fashion brand Odd Existence, loves the contrast between the city and nature and has a special little hideaway on Amager where she loves to unplug.

Trianglen is an iconic square in Østerbro with a unique history, charm, and a lively atmosphere. If you get off the Metro here, you’ll find yourself right in the heart of nature, culture, and sports.
