What people say

"Christiania boasts its largest concert hall, the Grey Hall, which holds a unique place in the community's rich artistic tapestry. Originally built in 1891 as a riding arena for the army barracks, the hall took on a new life when Christiania emerged in the 1970s. It rapidly transformed into a vibrant hub for all things art and music. Throughout its illustrious history, the Grey Hall has witnessed legendary performances. Renowned artists like Bob Dylan, Rage Against the Machine, Metallica, Manic Street Preachers, and Faithless have graced its stage. Today, the venue continues to host a variety of concerts, primarily organized by external agencies that rent the space. Beyond concerts, the Grey Hall also serves as a space for Christiania's own festive traditions. In the lead-up to Christmas, the hall transforms into a bustling marketplace, drawing crowds for a lively bazaar. This festive spirit culminates on Christmas Eve, where the community gathers within the Grey Hall for a communal celebration, fostering a sense of togetherness."

"Christiania is safe, but there have been drug related violent crimes committed there, so be cautious and on alert when you visit."
