From Rhode's road trip up north to Zalando's exhibition, this is every event open to all at Copenhagen Fashion Week during the spring/summer '27 season

With no invitation in hand (or, more likely these days, sitting in your inbox), it's easy to succumb to a little Copenhagen Fashion Week FOMO. After all, the runways, presentations, and parties are notoriously guest list only. But don't despair just yet.

Beyond the closed doors, a host of public-facing events will run across the Danish capital throughout the week, offering fashion enthusiasts a chance to experience the buzz first-hand. From exclusive pop-ups and exhibitions to talks, activations, and brand experiences, we've rounded up the best public events taking place during Copenhagen Fashion Week, proving you don't need a front-row seat to soak up the style spectacle.

1664's Fashion Week viewing party

Having no ticket does not mean you can't experience a show. Popping over from Paris, lager label 1664 is, for the first time, offering a live-stream experience where fashion fans can gather to watch shows unfurl.

The brand will host its viewing party at Niels Hemmingsens Gade 12, screening selected shows from the official Copenhagen Fashion Week schedule. The best part? There is no guest list and no invitation needed. Simply come along, grab a beer (alcoholic or alcohol-free) and indulge in the shows on screen.

6 August, 2pm to 8pm, Niels Hemmingsens Gade 12, 1217

Rhode's Copenhagen pop-up shop

Rhode is going on a road trip. The beauty brand, founded by Hailey Rhode Bieber, will be popping up in Copenhagen during Fashion Week. From this travelling kiosk, those on the ground will be able to try and purchase a handful of the brand's coveted cult products, including Pocket Bronze, Highlight Milk, new shades of the Peptide Lip Shape, limited edition Lip Tints, and more.

The kiosk isn't only stocking beauty. Also available are the snap-on phone cases, terry bags, and limited-edition hoodies from Skylrk, designed uniquely for the location.

This is a first-come, first-served service, so make sure to turn up early to get a time slot.

6 to 9 August, 11am to 7pm, Papirøen 59, 1436

Zalando's 'Visionary Award' exhibition

Copenhagen Fashion Week would not be what it is today without the Zalando Visionary Award, and, next week, the retailer is opening its doors for a two-day exhibition at Copenhagen Contemporary to bring together fashion, art, technology, and craft.

Visitors can explore the worlds behind the award through workshops with current winners and Visionary Award alumni (including Iamisigo, Paolina Russo, and Sinéad O'Dwyer), as well as watch a live recording of fashion show talk The Perfect X with Camille Charrière, plus a live screening of this year's winner Institution's runway show.
