Communal dining with lounge music

Bring your family, friends, or colleagues to an informal communal dinner at the newly renovated Pakhus 47 in Nordhavn, right by Orientkaj.

Every Thursday, noon eatery invites you to a long table dinner served on large platters and bowls, with a focus on flavor, organic ingredients, and sourdough bread from their own bakery. Look forward to leaning back, enjoying a well-prepared meal, and having pleasant conversations accompanied by gentle lounge music from the DJ booth.

Head to MAL & VIN in Absalon

Every Friday and Saturday evening, Folkehuset Absalon invites you to MAL & VIN (Painting & Wine) in the Tower Room, where you can enjoy a few hours of creative immersion with a paintbrush in one hand and a glass of wine in the other – and of course, you can take your artwork home with you afterwards.

Just book a spot and show up, and the paint, brushes, and paper will be ready when you arrive.

Are you ready to let your imagination run wild?

Join a book club

Do you love books, words, and good stories? Then join a book club where you can meet up, read, discuss, and share your reading experiences with each other.

Copenhagen Libraries has book clubs all over the city—and for all genres. If you like bestsellers and critics' favorites, the book club in Amager meets on the second Monday of every month at Islands Brygge Library – a short walk from the Islands Brygge metro station.

Find a book club that suits you and join your new literary community.

Step into an oasis of peace and tranquility

Copenhagen's cemeteries are also for the living, serving as peaceful, green oases in the city – and Vestre Kirkegaard is no exception. In fact, it is Denmark's largest cemetery, and as soon as you step inside, it's as if all the noise and bustle of the city disappears.

Take a stroll along the beautiful avenues, sit down on a bench and enjoy the peace and quiet, or download the free app, Artour, and go in search of some of the cemetery's most interesting graves, such as those of Herman Bang, Tove Ditlevsen, and Thorvald Stauning.

Immerse yourself in the sounds of Copenhagen

Even when we seek silence, we still hear something. In Copenhagen Museum's special exhibition, you can immerse yourself in The Sound of Copenhagen.

What does Copenhagen sound like? And how has the city's sound evolved over time? You can learn more about this in the exhibition, which focuses on sound and listening, with particular emphasis on 19th-century Copenhagen – a period when the city transformed from a crowded fortress town into a vibrant metropolis.

Take the Metro to Rådhuspladsen, and it's just a short walk to the museum.

Tip! Every Wednesday, admission is free for everyone.
