Community Café – by Welcome Ambassadors

Feeling curious (or nervous) about the long Danish winter ahead? 

Join us for a cozy and festive edition of the Community Café, where we explore how Danes make it through the darkest months — and why hygge makes all the difference.

You can expect:

• Insights into Danish winter culture, traditions, and everyday survival tips
• Fun seasonal activities: pakkeleg (gift game), crafts, and communal singing
• A welcoming space to meet others, share your own traditions, and enjoy the season together

Let’s recreate a bit of that magical Danish winter feeling — with gløgg, conversation, and cozy vibes all around.

About the project

Meet the International Ambassadors of Ørestad, a group of 12 volunteer ambassadors – both internationals and Danes – brought together by the shared belief in community, inclusion, and the power of meaningful connections.
 
Together with International House Copenhagen, the ambassador corps creates welcoming spaces where newcomers and long-time residents can meet, talk, and grow together - and make Copenhagen feel more like home. Whether you’re new to Denmark or simply looking to expand your social circle, you can join the events that are open to everyone.
