Surviving the Danish winter — with a touch of Hygge
Feeling curious (or nervous) about the long Danish winter ahead?
Join us for a cozy and festive edition of the International Café, where we explore how Danes make it through the darkest months — and why hygge makes all the difference.
Expect:
• Insights into Danish winter culture, traditions, and everyday survival tips
• Fun seasonal activities: pakkeleg (gift game), crafts, and communal singing
• A welcoming space to meet others, share your own traditions, and enjoy the season together
Let’s recreate a bit of that magical Danish winter feeling — with gløgg, conversation, and cozy vibes all around.
About the project
Meet the International Ambassadors of Ørestad, a group of 12 volunteer ambassadors – both internationals and Danes – brought together by the shared belief in community, inclusion, and the power of meaningful connections.
Together with International House Copenhagen, the ambassador corps creates welcoming spaces where newcomers and long-time residents can meet, talk, and grow together - and make Copenhagen feel more like home. Whether you’re new to Denmark or simply looking to expand your social circle, you can join the events that are open to everyone.
