Looking for your next exciting conference and meeting destination?

...Then it's definitely worth looking into Denmark! When it comes to fulfilling all your meeting destination expectations, the charming Scandinavian country encompasses everything your heart could desire. Plus, it's really easy to get there!

Denmark lies at the very crossroads of Europe, Scandinavia and the Baltic countries. Whether your delegates are arriving from other parts of Scandinavia and Europe or from North America or even further afield, Denmark is easily accessible by air, sea, road and rail.


Copenhagen Airport - Among the world's best!

Few capitals in the world can boast an airport less than 15 minutes away from the city centre - Copenhagen can! Copenhagen airport is consistently voted among the world's best for its comfort, service and all-round performance by consumer travel groups and magazines.


Copenhagen Airport is served by more than 60 international airlines flying non-stop from approximately 130 cities worldwide. In addition, the international airports of Billund, Aalborg and Århus serve Jutland with direct flights from a number of European destinations.


Salvatore Gabola, Managing Director: "I have visited Copenhagen several times, and I like the city very much. I am especially enthusiastic about the airport, which is an experience in itself. I flew with SAS this time, which was very pleasant. Good service and Scandinavian order."

Denmark is a small and compact country, so you’ll find everything close at hand. The infrastructure is excellent with superb public transport. Buses, boats, trains, taxis and the metro make it easy to get around the cities and travel between them.

Distance from airport to city centre:


Munich: 18 miles
Rome: 16 miles
Budapest: 15 miles

Copenhagen: 5 miles!



The convenience of travelling throughout Denmark allows visitors to easily combine visits to areas of natural beauty with the cultural attractions of the cities, without wasting time on transport. So when it's time for a break from the meeting room, you can take a trip by train, coach or car through the scenic Danish landscape, and enjoy the clean air, crystal-clear lakes, lush beech woods and impressive landscapes.


"We took a corporate group of over 250 persons to Copenhagen for a weekend. The trip was a huge success. The accessibility of Copenhagen was a real "plus-point". Overall we found Copenhagen to be a city full of surprises - accessible, clean, friendly and efficient. We will be recommending the city to our clients as a high-quality, short-haul destination." - Angela Hart, Reflex Event Management

Says Ken Findlay from Kimal: “Having decided to host a conference in Copenhagen, I was continually impressed and remain so, by the personal attention to detail, the friendliness and helpfulness of everyone I dealt with, their professionalism, their state of the art equipment, the quality of the accommodation and the total value for money. All in all the city deserves sincere commendations. To have put the same 5 star/conference on in the UK would have cost me considerably more.”
