HELLO COPENHAGEN

Rezet Store, Rådhusstræde 7 up the stairs to the right, city Show map

16:00 – 19:00 // no entrance fee

As you may know,  this week has been declared fashion week in Copenhagen.

This of course means a lot of “hard to reach” parties and closed doors – but it also means small receptions and free drinks.

Rezet Store is a fairly new (and my personal favorite) sneaker store in Copenhagen. It’s a bit secluded from the busy Strøget and has a welcoming atmosphere.

The small shop is host when the ‘street’ brand Moustage is launching their new collection – their first collection was completely sold out, so I guess if you are into street fashion, this would not be a bad place to get some shopping inspiration.

Also there will be vodka/Burn for the thirsty and of course a dj will be spreading the good vibes.

Afterparty at Mesteren & Lærlingen at meetpacking district (Kødbyen)

If you are into street culture, this festival is definitely worth a visit.

It doesn’t matter if you are into street art, street sports, street music – you name it, it’ll be there.

So polish your sneaks and get ready for break-battles, freestyle cycling, live graffiti, capoeira, parcour and so on and so on.

Poteo office, Jægersborggade 31, Copenhagen N Show map

18:00-23:00 // free entrance

The guys behind the Poteo idea invites you to join the release of their new application.

The concept behind the Poteo idea consists of a loyalty system between smartphone users and various cafes and shops around Copenhagen.

And you can already now take part in the Poteo treasure hunt since there are 100 QR codes around the streets and walls of the city. All you need to do if you find a QR code is to scan it with your smartphone.

Your scan triggers a coupon which you can then redeem at John’s Hotdog Deli. But only if you find it first. Rumour has it that one of the codes will trigger a brunch for two.

So drop by the release night and drink a glass of champagne with the Poteo guys and get introduced to the app. John will be dropping by to make special edition Poteo hotdogs for everyone.
