It’s Copenhagen Pride Week 2017!


15th-20th August


Pride is a celebrated moment for Copenhagen’s gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community to come together - so come along and take part! 

This annual celebration is not only about thousands of people coming together to celebrate diversity, but also to raise issues for the LGTB community and human rights.

Pride is for everyone, so get your pass and take part! This gives you access to loads of deals and of course helps to support the event. 
Pride Square in the middle of the city provides a great place to check out what’s going on with pop up shops as well as entertainment.

Taking part in Pride is a great excuse to dress up and party! We love checking out the outrageous and fabulous costumes, and of course getting involved ourselves! Think bold and beautiful!
