Venues
Please note that the conference and the workshops take place in two different venues.
The conference on Thursday May 17, 2018 is at Marketenderiet, one of Copenhagen’s most beautiful event spaces. The address is Kirsten Walthers Vej 5, 2500 Valby.
The workshops on Friday May 18, 2018 take place at Dare2 Mansion, which has some of the coolest and most creative training facilities we’ve seen anywhere. The address is Vermundsgade 13-15, 2100 Copenhagen Ø.
Transportation to the venues and parking
There is excellent public transportation all over Copenhagen. Google maps is great for planning your trip by train, metro or bus to either venue.
Of course, the fastest and most Danish way to get there would be to rent a bike. There are numerous bike shops that provide rental bikes and a city bike program as well.
If you arrive by car, there are limited parking options for each venue: Marketenderiet has limited street parking. Payment for parking in paid areas is handled via EasyPark app/sms (area 4211). Please always check the signs where you park.
