Want to know some of the standout things to do in Copenhagen? Then have a look through our handpicked suggestions below...
1. Shop on Stroget
You can spend the entire day browsing this magnificent shopping area. After the stores close, relax and enjoy an evening of free street performances and live music.
2. Eat Smorrebrod
Although it might sound a bit daunting, it’s actually only an open-faced sandwich. If you’re feeling peckish be sure to grab this cheap, classic Danish snack. Or, alternatively, you can go to one of the city’s many hotdog stands...
3. Take a Turn Around Tivoli Gardens
Tivoli’s quaint amusement park and pleasure garden are amongst Copenhagen’s top draws. Visitors can ride one of the world’s oldest wooden roller coasters (Rutsjebanen) or enjoy the views from its tallest carousel (Himmelskibet).

This festival holds Copenhagen hostage for 10 days every summer. During this time, everyone from obscure backstreet artists to big name bands play gigs throughout the city.
5. Visit Amalienborg Palace
Whether it’s the fascinating Amalienborg Museum or the changing of the guards at noon, this stunningly beautiful Palace and its surrounding area is not to be missed.
