Festival in Østre Anlæg

Experience the love of cycling in all its forms when the whole family is invited to join the Copenhagen Sprint Festival in Østre Anlæg on June 21-22. A weekend where culture, sport and community joinforces in the heart of Copenhagen. Two days packed with fun activities, shows, music and the love of cycling.

The festival program offers activities for all ages – from children’s races and e-cycling to shows and concerts. The whole family can participate in creative workshops, food experiences and enjoy concerts. The highlights from the cycling race will be shown on the big screen both days, while the park is buzzing with play and life.

 

Explore the festival areas:

The Stage

This is where festival guests gather for live music, children’s entertainment and shows. Come and meet Børste from Minisjang, experience August, Thomas, Vigga and Lucas in MGP Allstars, go to a heavy concert with Copenhell for Kids, or enjoy afternoon jazz music, or the evening concerts with SVEA S and The Savage Rose.

 

Big screen & street food

Take a break and in the green surroundings in Østre Anlæg and see the highlights of the cycling race on the big screen as the elite cyclists race from Roskilde to Copenhagen. Explore the food stalls or bring your own lunch.

 

Cycling activities for all ages

Whether you are three or sixty, there will be plenty of fun activities and experiences at the festival site. Test your balance and speed on bike lanes for the very young, take part in children’s bike races or race against yourself or others in a virtual bike race – how many watts can you pedal? Unleash your creative side in the Statens Museum for Kunst’s creative workshop, where old bike parts get new life as works of art, or test your food courage at Hello Kitchen, where you can also cycle your way to a smoothie with pure pedal power. 

 

Finish area – feel the rush of the elite cyclists

Follow as the elite cyclists rush to the finish line in Sølvgade. Here, the pulse is high, cheers and the opportunity to experience the sport up close – right where it all culminates. 

Here you can also experience a show with the Danish iconic “Cykelmyggen Egon” and “Dansemyggen”, and help send “Cykelmyggen Egon” off into the public bike ride.
