Experience one of the world's most LGBTQI+ friendly destinations

Denmark don't believe that being gay should have to define your choice of holiday destination. Denmark is consistently ranked among the most LGBTQI+ friendly countries in the world.

Why you should visit colourful Copenhagen

You ought to visit Copenhagen for the same reasons everyone ought to visit Copenhagen: it's simply a fabulous city (and once you've been you'll understand without being able to put a finger on why it's a great city to visit).

"It’s hard to find a distinct LGBTQ neighbourhood in Copenhagen – until you realise that Copenhagen is the LGBTQ neighbourhood of Scandinavia." (British LGBT Awards)

Copenhagen is as colourful as a rainbow in both a figurative and literal sense. You'll get to stroll through the city centre's charming cobbled streets with century-old buildings that seem like they're always dressed up for a pride parade, and within walking distance (or cycle distance if you want to do it Copenhagen style) you'll find quirky shops, alleyways and bars.

Jeeze Copenhagen, where do we even begin? There are some AMAZING bars and clubs to check out, so get your glad rags on! First off, you can't go to Copenhagen without checking out the BIGGEST name around G-A-Y! Right in the city centre, you'll find some of the best DJ's for dancing right into the early hours! Got a thing for someone in uniform? Well at Jailhouse CPH, you'll find all the staff dressed as Police in this themed bar. One of the oldest Gay bars in the city is Centralhjørnet, there's a real mixed and inclusive crowd here and they have all sorts of shows going on throughout the week, from smooth jazz to drag! Masken is another oldie but goldie and has actually won the title of "Best Gay Bar" before too. A fab lesbian bar to go for a chilled evening in is Vela Gay Bar, but it does get more lively into the night.

As well as an extensive list of incredible bars, there's an even bigger list of incredible places to eat! Well known for it's edible delights, some traditional Danish food is definitely on the cards and topping the list of places to try it is "Tight" which is made even more of an experience by the beautiful historic building it's set in. Seafood is obviously going to be a must with Copenhagen's coastal setting, so some Sushi at Sticks 'n' Sushi is also worth a visit. One of the most popular places to try is BOB - Bio Organic Bistro, just like the name says, everything here is organic and food is prepared for you up front and centre. It's been busy from day one so get there early not to be disappointed!
