Konum ve Serbest Zaman
The Cultural Summit takes place in the town of Nykøbing Mors on the island of Mors in northern Denmark. Nykøbing is the biggest town on the island, with about 10,000 inhabitants.
You will be living in a town with proximity to shops and grocery stores, but on an island that is quite rural compared with the rest of Denmark.
The island is a beloved summer destination for many tourists, with notable nature, good hiking opportunities, unique geological cliff formations, many good beaches, and a special island vibe. We will provide recommendations for things to do during your days off.
During the weekend of the Summit, the town of Nykøbing Mors turns into a vibrant festival site with 40,000 visitors. In your leisure time during the three days of the Summit, you will get to experience the festival program.
The Summit is primarily a talk festival with many conversations in Danish, but we also have a vibrant arts and culture program including film, theatre, dance, and live music.
