Entertainment & Activities
There are 1000 possibilities of activities in CPH. I would go for some of the outdoor activities, depending of course on the weather.
The whole world, loves Tivoli. I would suggest you spend a half day in Tivoli. The garden is absolutely most magical at night. Enjoy all the amusements, pantomime theater, flowers and lights, starting up in the afternoon. In my family we use to bring a lunch or dinner picnic with us. There’s a place where you are allowed to bring your own food and just buy drinks. The garden closes at midnight and there’s sometimes a gordious firework. ( which you by the way can watch from our terasse as well☺️)

Very cheap, relaxed and every day food for families. It’s like a “cosy cafeteria”. Around 80 kr. for a meal, and you can have refill. Don’t serve alcohol.
