Green Friday is a festival celebrating reuse across three Copenhagen districts: Vesterbro, Indre By and Sydhavn. Over the evening, the areas fill with exhibitions, concerts, workshops, drop-in repair sessions, swap markets and late-opening second-hand and repair shops.
Vesterbro hosts more than 30 locations with activities, including a guided walk through the streets, a food-waste dinner, the Christmas tree lighting and knitting for people experiencing homelessness. Indre By focuses on textiles, with talks, a fashion show, textile workshops, a concert at Kulturhuset Indre By and a Christmas workshop on Højbro Plads. In Sydhavn, the artist group CHIMERA takes over Sydhavn Genbrugscenter with a symposium of performances and installations exploring waste, passion and consumerism, while Sidste Mole screens a documentary and closes with a DJ set. A shuttle bus connects the districts and activities.
