Copenhagen Contemporary - CC

Copenhagen Contemporary (CC) is one of Scandinavia's largest exhibition venues for contemporary art and a lively meeting place for a wide audience. CC creates collaborative partnerships and organises events with a number of different partners across cultural genres locally and internationally. You can attend art talks, art walks, concerts, creative workshops for children, visit CC's own shop offering Scandinavian design, and experience the unique and historical city district of Refshaleøen. Since 2016, CC has organised exhibitions featuring, among others, Bruce Nauman, Yoko Ono, Carsten Nicolai, Ragnar Kjartansson, Pierre Huyghe, Bill Viola, Céleste Boursier-Mougenot, Sarah Sze, Christian Marclay, Anselm Kiefer, SUPERFLEX, and Doug Aitken. Situated centrally at Refshaleøen in B&W's iconic welding hall, CC is an international power hub in Copenhagen's new cultural district. The special quality of this area continues to be defined by its industrial history: the area is raw and green with commanding views across Copenhagen Harbour. The district is a mix of first-class gourmet restaurants and small entrepreneurial initiatives; you can go for a dip in the sea, for a sauna, enjoy a glass of wine, and eat grilled food, buy quality bread and visit Copenhagen's most popular food market with stalls from across the world and lounge areas by the water's edge. Opening hours: Wednesday-Sunday 11am-6pm Thursday 11am-9pm Monday-Tuesday closed
