Friday Night Skate in CPH

Do you enjoy skating? Then Friday Night Skate is made for you!

The concept is simple and sounds really fun:
On selected Friday evenings you are able to skate through Copenhagen in the middle of the street with a large group of people. FNS gathers 500 to 1.500 participants per event. There is an FNS planned every second Friday during the period from April until September.

The best thing: everyone can participate, it is free and there is no signing up.

Just show up in Solbjerg Plads at Frederiksberg at 7:45 pm sharp and enjoy the ride :)

The next FSN event is coming up on the 17th of May.
Will you be there?
