Its mixture of entertainment venues, rollercoasters, restaurants and gardens makes it one of the most popular spots in Copenhagen for families!

And if you want to combine your first visit of the year with something special over Easter, then don’t miss the Pippi Longstocking musical (April 13-17, 12:00 & 16:00; 165-295kr) at the glass hall theatre, Glassalen.

Amuse yourself when the Astrid Lindgren heroine takes you on an adventure to the circus and a tea party!
