Assemble!

Europe’s new architectural politics conference seeks a sustainable building sector within planetary boundaries for people and the planet.

Open House

Visit the secret places in Copenhagen that you've always dreamed of seeing — and those you never even knew existed.

Slow Pavilions

Join us for the opening of the pavilions on 18th September at 16:00 on Søren Kierkegaards Plads.

Group Exhibition

The group exhibition “Slow Down” explores silence, slowness, and resilience in architecture.
‍Slow Down, the theme of Copenhagen Architecture Biennial 2025, investigates architecture as matters of time and means of slowing down overheated sites, cities, and societies.
