LEISURE - WHAT IS THERE TO DO?
We’re inviting you to festivals, culture, workshops, concerts, creative stuff, sports and a bunch of other adventures, that you don’t want to miss. Want to come?
Need plans for the weekend?
Or some inspiration for fun with friends or a date night? Look no further – there is plenty here to fill your calendar.
Platform K
Platform K stands for culture, creativity, coffee, concerts, love, and edge (all of which begin with the letter K in Danish). “Come and join us” also begins with a K, and this is YOUR place too. Platform K is the place to get together for concerts, events, talks, rehearsals, workshops, conversations in the café, food, and new experiences. Perhaps you have an idea for an event? Maybe you just want to be part of it all?
Kulturstationen (the Culture Station)
Are you the creative type? We have three schools for you to practice your craft. Komediehuset for theatre. Billedskolen for art. And Musikskolen for music.
Mærk Byen
Mærk Byen means Feel the City. Just don’t take it literally. This heading covers urban mini-events like outdoor yoga, street art, public screenings, festivals, and open air art exhibitions.
Get sweaty
There is always room for you on our football fields or waterways, in yoga studios or fitness centres. The overview of our sports clubs and associations is in Danish, but if you need extra guidance please contact our sports consultant, Søren, at: sojoc@horsens.dk.
Are you the cheerful type?
Whether you have the full overview of the offside rule, know all about technical fouls or if you mostly attend matches for the hot dogs, you are more than welcome on the stands.
Forum Horsens feature many different sports. In the programme, you can see when it is time to put on the jersey and cheer for the home team.
Grøn Fest
Of course, climate and environment are big issues in Horsens too. Which is why we love to learn and have fun at GRØN FEST, a one day festival that serves up a platter of talks, food, and music.
Makværk Festival
A festival with workshops and projects for all creative souls.
