Bella Center
Copenhagen's prime exhibition and convention center, boasting over 123,000 square metres of exhibition space. Fairly often there is a exhibition and event of some interest to the general public — check the current schedule on their website.
Danmarks Radios Koncertsal
Part of the public broadcasters new and problem ridden headquarters in Ãrestad, this gem designed by French architect Jean Nouvel is the main reason behind the massive budget overruns of the project — with its final price tag approaching 300 million USD, it is among the most expensive concert halls ever built.
Havnebadet
Enormously popular green area and city beach, with enclosed salt water pools, including some shallow ones for kids, and a five meter "jumping" tower, shower, grill and toilet facilities, and it is manned with life guards. Excellent spot for hanging out with locals on sunny days, and it is quite a peculiar sensation having a swim smack in the centre of the city.
Amager Strandpark
Probably the largest beach in the near vicinity of Copenhagen, artificially constructed some years back. Includes a large sand island and a inner lagoon. There is usually a good range of activities going on, even outside the bathing season, such as windsurfing, diving, water skiing, sea kayaking and some hugely popular beach volleyball fields. If you're visiting during winter you have a chance to show your inner Viking with winter bath on the New Helgoland pier.
You come to Amager to do two things: attend concerts in the islands two spectacular concert venues, or cool down on the island's beaches. Either can be done at the "city" beach, or some of the other proper beaches dotting the eastern and southern shoreline.
Mogens Dahl Koncertsal
The country's only privately owned concert hall, featuring some interesting architecture as it has been fitted into some old stables. The programme mainly features classical Chamber music, with artists from all over Europe.
