Practical details

Target group: Expats and Danes in Copenhagen who would like to know more about wine and meet new people. No previous knowledge of wine is necessary.

There is a maximum number of attendees – when the list is full, it will be mentioned here. Members of the Work & Life Programs join for free and are always secured a seat.

Address: Hedegaardsvej 73 – on Amager, next to Femøren metro station, which is 12 minutes away with the metro from Nørreport. Follow the metro-wall north 100 meters, enter through the gate “Haveforeningen Engdraget” and find house 73 (call 2711 2111 if you get lost). The venue is a Danish “kolonihavehus”. If the weather is good, we will spend part of the event outdoor. Remember to bring warm clothes.
