The Queer Festival Location

This year the Queer Festival moves to a great location at AFUK (a school for artistic disciplines) in central Copenhagen. Here we have perfect surroundings for a real festival feeling with room for concerts, workshops, exhibitions, movie screenings and more.
In between activities you can hang out at the outdoor café, go for a swim at the harbor front just around the corner or maybe do a bit of cruising at the Amagerfælled Park.

Facilities

We have a stage at the place for performances and concerts, which will be open every day during the festival.
Furthermore we have accommodation facilities for about 50 people at the place, a room for film and video showing and 4 workshop spaces.
We also have two yards, which are surrounded by the buildings of the school, and one of these have a stage which can be used for acoustic music and other performances.
