About this event
For eight days international street theatre companies take over squares and parks in Copenhagen's outer neighbourhoods with acrobatics, clowning, large-scale puppetry and quieter intimate pieces. Everything happens in public space and nothing is ticketed, so you can follow the daily schedule from district to district or simply turn up and see what has landed nearby.
Why we picked it
A full week of international street theatre, free and suitable for all ages, in the neighbourhoods most visitors never reach.
Free entry
The City of Copenhagen's culture guide states the festival is free and for all ages.
