Celebrate the magic of Ukrainian Christmas with Ukraine House in Denmark
On Dec. 9, we look forward to hosting you for a heartwarming festive experience filled with cherished traditions. Join us for a panel discussion exploring the enchanting parallels between Ukrainian Christmas and the cozy charm of Danish Hygge, uncovering the threads that weave these festive traditions together.
Engage in a workshop on crafting didukhs, traditional Ukrainian Christmas decorations made of straw, and learn age-old techniques to create your own beautiful piece of holiday magic.
Children will light up with joy in their own festive workshop building a Christmas city, and we'll also screen the historical drama "Shchedryk," a Christmas fantasy depicting a Ukrainian family of musicians living through the Soviet and German occupations. Throughout the day, savour traditional Ukrainian dishes and join in singing Ukrainian Christmas carols.
On Dec. 16-18, experience the enchanting melodies of Ukrainian Christmas carols as the world-renowned boys’ and men’s choir “Dudaryk” from Lviv, Ukraine, embarks on a special three-day concert tour across various locations in Copenhagen.
This extraordinary visit includes performances at Eliaskirken on Dec. 16 at 19:30, Sankt Petri Kirken on Dec. 17 at 14:00, and Copenhagen City Hall on Dec. 18 at 20:00.
Dudaryk, one of Ukraine's best and most experienced choirs with a history dating back to the 18th century, will transport audiences to the heart of Ukrainian Christmas traditions. Founded in 1971 under Soviet occupation, they overcame adversity to become a shining example of Ukrainian musical excellence. Join us for an unforgettable evening of music, tradition, and unity, as we build bridges between cherished Ukrainian Christmas customs and the cozy "hygge" atmosphere that Danes cherish especially during the holiday season.
All profits from the concerts will be donated to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, supporting their efforts in safeguarding the country's fight for sovereignty and against ongoing Russian aggression.

Decolonizing Mindsets for Security in Ukraine and Europe19.4.2024 07:00:00 CEST | Presseinvitation
Dear Friend of the Ukraine House, In 2024, we still witness the consequences of imperial ambitions and the legacy of colonialism affecting international relations in Europe and threatening European security. The full-scale Russian war of aggression against Ukraine showed the real danger of ignoring the voices of the colonised, repressed and persecuted, and regarding only the former empire as a worthwhile stakeholder in international relations. What would the world have looked like if Russia wasn’t received with impunity after it launched its brutal wars of recolonisation against Ichkeria, Moldova, Georgia and Ukraine? Perhaps currently we would not be facing the largest war in Europe since the Second World War.
