Greenland in Tivoli
Two Days of Greenlandic Culture
Experience the sights, sounds and traditions of Greenland as Tivoli Gardens once again welcomes Greenland in Tivoli. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the very first gathering, when a group of Greenlandic students chose Tivoli as the place to meet – a tradition that has since grown into the world’s largest celebration of Greenlandic culture outside Greenland.
Discover both contemporary and traditional Greenlandic culture through a vibrant programme of live music, anniversary celebrations, an art exhibition, inspiring talks and family activities. Browse the lively market stalls for Greenlandic handicrafts, local delicacies and quality products, and experience the unique atmosphere that has made Greenland in Tivoli a cherished annual tradition for the past five decades.
See the full programme below.
We look forward to welcoming you to Greenland in Tivoli.
Takuss!
