Free things to do in summer in Copenhagen

Danish people know that summer don't last forever, that is why they take advantage of the sun in a unique way. Explore the city through this perspective: you only live once (summer).

Open Air by Cinemateket
@renataag
The concept is simple: film and sky together. Each summer the Cinemateket (cinematheque) organised films screening around the city. Could be in the King's Park or the Botanical Garden. Just let yourself fall in summer love (once again) to a great film.

Reffen - Copenhagen Street Food
@renataag
Cross the bridge, it's worthy. Besides the food trucks that are open all week theres a lot of fun things to do for free. Summer partys with international DJs, live concerts and events like Sankt Hans celebration. Ping pong, petanque, skate park, board games. Head to Beer Garden to borrow equipment. Don't worry if it rain, the bar Werkstatts is there to save the day.

Bas Under Buen
@renataag
A group of DJs looking for promoting the bass music and culture created this event under the big heavy concrete bridge at Frederiksberg. Thousands of people show up to every year to celebrate the annual bass day along sounds of Reggae, Dub, Garage, Dubstep, Drum & and everything in between. All Danish artists, all for free. I went alone and meet a danish friendly group that made me part of them. Is there a better way to meet locals? I doubt it. (Note aside: I looked up for this event to tag it and only appear the version in Aarhus, but I can confirm that ocurres by July in Copenhagen. Trust me.)

Distortion

The festival brings music and dancing to the streets for bloc parties, raves, and more! With plenty of free events to enjoy and hopefully some sunny weather, this is an unmissable party for anyone who loves dance music. Don't miss the Vesterbro street party normally the 1st June, which is taking place in Vesterbro neighbourhood.
