The story

Bornholm Culture Week in Bornholm

Bornholms Kulturuge runs ten days each September, always in week 38, spanning nine separate culture streams: concerts in unconventional venues, guided town and nature walks, workshops, exhibitions, theatre, literature and visits to island artisans and food producers. A single wristband, priced around 100 Danish kroner for anyone over 15, covers the participating events, including the festival's oldest fixture, the Out of Season concert series headed by Danish songwriter Steffen Brandt.

Nine separate culture streams give visitors to Bornholms Kulturuge a genuine choice of festival rather than one fixed programme, spanning concerts staged in unconventional venues, cultural-historical town walks, nature-themed guided tours, workshops, exhibitions, lectures, dance performances, a theatre festival, a literary festival and visits to island artisans and food producers, all running across ten days in September, always held in week 38.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Culture Week's structure as nine separate, freely combinable culture streams rather than one fixed programme is its genuine distinction, functioning as an umbrella under which dozens of Bornholm's own cultural organisations, artisans and venues each contribute independently, letting visitors build a personalised festival schedule rather than follow one itinerary

02

The mystery stays covered

Timed deliberately for September, after Bornholm's peak summer tourist season thins out, the festival gives the island a substantial late-season cultural anchor, and its oldest fixture, the Out of Season concert series headed by Danish singer-songwriter Steffen Brandt, has run continuously as the programme's music backbone
