CO2penhagen


CO2PENHAGEN 2009 IS DENMARK’S MOST INNOVATIVE SHOWCASE OF EXPERIENCES AND GREEN TECHNOLOGY

This is the first time ever that a music- and artfestival runs entirely on renewable energy.

CO2PENHAGEN takes place at Denmark’s Technical University just outside Copenhagen on September 4-6 2009, with 3000 visitors expected every day.

The goal is to visualize the knowledge already present at technical universities and spotlight businesses’ green products. It all takes place in a CO2-neutral miniature society surrounded by art and music.

The festival is an entertaining event that proves that green energy can coincide with great design. Renewable energy is more than solar panels and windmills. CO2PENHAGEN is developed through collaborations between businesses, local and international artists and Danish students. Students at Denmark’s Technical University are some of the main drivers behind the collaboration.

One of the CO2PENHAGEN founders, Katrine Vejby, who worked as a BBC producer for ten years, says:

“It is going to be wild and visionary. CO2PENHAGEN will be an entertaining event unlike anything we’ve ever seen before. The festival states Denmark’s position as a frontrunner within user driven innovation and design”.
