The first of may is definitely a day to experience CPH. Thousands of danes ( 60.000 or so...) are hanging around in Fælledparken, the green oasis at the opposite site of the football stadium Parken in Østerbro, enjoying themselves and lots of beer. While drinking beer and listening to loud music from their ghettoblasterbikes (christiana-type bikes modified with ghettoblasters), the different parties send someone to the big stage, where rather psychedelic music is played in the meantime, for talking about the political aspects of being a worker. If you are at the right place in denmark (this happening is occuring in a few selected places in denmark), you will even hear a live-speech of the prime minister.
To make it attractive, also for people with not much political interests and foreigners, some entertainment tents are built up - like thai food, pommes, churros, peas- and strawberry-seller and small other children attractions. And of course lots of beer places. All the shops in the close surrounding of the parc are heaving beer on offer as well. Definitely a day to learn, how to enjoy a carlsberg.
All in all its just an occasion to hang around in a (full) parc, listening to some (psychedelic) music and drink a beer together with your friends on a hopefully sunny day. Why not? I like it.
Here a few impressions:
Ouh, i forgot to mention the beer-can-collecting industry, which is having one of its high-points at that day:
