"Since Culture Night in 2022, we have brought Ukrainian culture to the leading events and platforms in Denmark - from Copenhagen Democracy Summit and Architecture Festival to 3DaysofDesign and the People's Meeting in Bornholm helping the Danish audience to meet the culture of brave and talented Ukrainians, who are currently on the frontline of defending the freedom in the world. During Kulturnatten 2023 we continue to elevate the voices of the Ukrainian artists who dare to live and create in Ukraine, who refuse to be muted by Russia's crime of aggression and war crimes against Ukraine and who are courageous to witness and document the tragedy, the fragility and the beauty of life and the art of living in the present even under the most difficult of the circumstances," commented Nataliia Popovych, chairperson of Ukraine House in Denmark.

During the evening our visitors can try the variety of Ukrainian snacks and drinks, listen to Ukrainian music, explore our gift shop and newly established library. Join us for an immersive experience that showcases the rich tapestry of Ukraine's traditions and contemporary culture.
