Harry Potter Party CPH
Feb 8, 22:00; Hive, 45 Skindergade, Cph K; 40-80kr

Miss this dress-up party at your peril or it’s avada kedavra! Strictly unofficial, upon arrival you’re sorted into houses and provided with character masks before you can get stuck into the butter beer and fire whiskeys. No Death Eaters or toads allowed! (BH)

Copenhagen Dining Week

Run by Copenhagen Food Magazine, this is the chance to scoff down a three-course meal at a top-class restaurant for the bargain price of 215kr. But be quick to book, as tickets sell out fast, and they’ve already been on sale for a week. (PS)

Seed Pop-Up

Feeling needy and seedy? Seed Pop-Up is a seed-swapping market where you swap seeds with other green-fingered enthusiasts or simply buy seeds home to cultivate your own window-box garden. (PS)
