Concert halls Denmark

One of the biggest discos in Denmark! Minimum age for the disco and the six bars: 23 years old! No age limit, however, for the many rock, jazz or pop concerts, or DJ performances. Very popular. Train was founded by Chris Anker-Petersen, in 1998, with a clear vision: "bring rock back to Aarhus". And it worked! The place has quickly become Aarhus' main stage with a large number of national and international artists on the program. A local music scene that has become one of the country's most prominent venues.

It's a coffee, a nightclub, a bar and a restaurant all at once! You can eat it all day. Concerts for all tastes Thursday or Friday: rock, jive of the 40 s, rockabilly, pop…

The Nordic House organizes exhibitions of all types and also offers evening activities, from classical music to film screenings, conferences or workshops for children.

The history of the place begins in 1973, when Eskil Holten, musician and restaurateur, opens his restaurant in this old building of the XVIIIth century where clogs were made! In an intimate atmosphere, Fatter Eskil offers numerous weekly concerts and jam sessions, amounting to about 300 to 400 concerts per year. With room for only 150 guests, the live experience is very special, you are close to the musicians. Late night concerts and sometimes DJ's in this temple of the blues to end your night in Aarhus.

Very beautiful place, built in 1982 by the architects Kjaer and Richter, with a huge glass façade of 2 000 m². Inside this "House of Music", several concert and theatre halls; but also a restaurant, a café, an exhibition gallery... Don't hesitate to enter, there is always something going on, even in the hall! Outside there is a sculpture park with works by Danish artists such as Gudrun Steen-Andersen, Ejler Bille from CoBrA and Anker Hoffman. Nice view of the House of Music and the ARos museum in front of it.

On the first floor of the building housing the Havnar Klubbi. American films are usually shown in their original version.

Ebeltoft is home to the European Film School, in a modern building (designed by a Finnish architectural firm), where the teaching is given in English. 120 students, 50% Danish and 50% from 25 different countries, have the opportunity to learn the techniques of writing (script), camera, sound, acting, lighting, directing, editing, documentary and production. A well-equipped cinema is open to the public several times a week (the programme can be found on the website).

A place we love, both modern and steeped in history. The cinema is located in Nørrebro, in an old factory built in 1900 to produce small locomotives. In 1960, Denmark's largest Renault dealer at the time, Falke-auto, moved in. In 1991, the site turned to cinema, becoming a studio created by film producer Kenneth Madsen. It has 7 screens with 25 to 227 seats. A must : comfortable cup-holder recliners and a last row with a "special kissing" double chair.

Art cinema and trial. Located on the second floor of Huset/Use-it.

One of the oldest cinemas in Copenhagen, with seven screens and a majority of European films. The cinema is located at the back of the Palace Hotel building designed by architect Anton Rosen, the most fashionable hotel in Copenhagen when it opened in 1910. The first cinema opened in 1913 as the Empire Theatre and was located in the Great Hall of the Palace. Good to know: Mondays are dedicated to French cinema and every day, the morning sessions at 9:30 am are very reasonably priced with a hot drink included.

A single room with a giant screen! Rare in the land of multiplexes! With its 996 seats, Nordic Film Cinemas Imperial or Biograf for the regulars, is the largest cinema in Scandinavia. The cinema opened in November 1961 and was completely renovated in 2013. Screen of 142^m2, hyper comfortable seats, new lighting in addition to the super performing Dolby Atmos audio system.

The Copenhagen Film Archive is located opposite Kongens Have, the King's Garden near Rosenborg Castle. Several spaces welcome you: a large café, an exhibition room, a bookshop, a library, and three cinemas with screenings. Free admission for documentaries, short films and children's films. The library has one of the largest collections of film and television literature, while the Videoteket provides access to over 14,000 films and the entire Media Stream catalogue.

Christiania is a district with a sulphurous reputation, so you might as well go there with your friends. First contact: a warehouse, a graffitied facade, a red and gold sign that invites to the jazz club and a crazy room with a rhythm of music of all jazz colors... The smallest room of Christiania and Copenhagen - but also the most underground - which was, at the time, a children's theater. It has become a famous and unmissable venue for all those who love hip-hop, reggae or electro music.

Gloria is an arthouse cinema to the glory of good cinema! Located on the town hall square in the heart of the city. The programming is very eclectic. The films shown come from all over the world and give pride of place to films in OV with English subtitles. A great opportunity to discover the cinema honoured with a palm or a bear during an evening preview, with a speaker to enrich the subject. Following the screening, a pot of friendship organized at the café (ground floor) allows you to share your impressions with the very knowledgeable staff.

A former cinema that was to become a supermarket! Thanks to music enthusiasts, it's now a modern music arena, but at the same time an intimate venue that plays host to internationally acclaimed bands from all over the world: Prince, James Brown, Dua Lipa, Texas... And it's been going on for over 25 years! In 2022, to celebrate this important anniversary, the line-up included Eagles of Death Metal and Matt Goss! With 130 concerts a year, you'll find an opportunity to experience the venue in all its intensity.

If you're an opera lover, you'll love Copenhagen! The program is rich and eclectic, in the original version with Danish subtitles. It is directed by Elisabeth Linton, who is also chief dramaturge at Malmö Opera. You can also enjoy the Royal Opera Chorus, Denmark's largest professional chorus, with 40 singers divided equally between men and women (yes, this is Denmark!). The choir has been directed by Australian-born Steven Moore since 2018.

Fans of pop-rock music visiting Harboøre in June will be delighted to discover the Haze Over Haarum festival, well known to the locals. For a whole weekend, you can enjoy an eclectic musical program in a family-friendly atmosphere. The more adventurous can pitch their tents here: the festival takes place in the heart of nature, a little way from the city. For others, a shuttle service is available. Refreshment stands and food-trucks will be on hand to keep festival-goers supplied.

Mojo Blues Bar is probably one of the few places in Europe where you can hear live blues music every night of the week (from 10pm). The name comes from the lyrics of old blues songs like "Got my mojo working" or "Went down to Louisiana to get my mojo hand"... It's an amulet, a sort of talisman worn to attract your soul mate. Afterwards, the DJs keep you dancing all night long. The atmosphere is relaxed and convivial. In addition to blues music, Mojo organizes evenings of soul, rock, blues rock, rock blues, zydeco, bluegrass...

La Fontaine is a bar where only jazz music is played. Popular with Copenhageners, it's a paradise for lovers of Sunday jam sessions. The atmosphere is relaxed. Beer flows freely. You're surrounded by red walls adorned with photos of jazz musicians. On stage, passionate bands. An intimate room for a hundred or so guests. Ideal for meeting new people in a tight, sticky atmosphere! But be sure to arrive well in advance if you want a chance to settle in.
