The best time to visit Copenhagen is during the spring or summer. Summer (June – August) brings the warmest weather and a few widespread events. The season sees an ultimate high in temperatures, but it is not uncommon for the evenings to become a bit chilly because of the breeze that sweeps across from the Baltic Sea. Those looking for lower rates and fewer crowds can still enjoy the mild weather in the spring (March – May). Between spring and summer the streets come alive as cafes overflow into the sidewalks and streets. Festivals fill the air with music and spirited locals get out and socialize. Starting in October, the city goes into hibernation for the winter to escape the piercing cold. The only exclusion being December, when hotels fill for holiday celebrations. During this season, you can be a part of festivals such as: Copenhagen Beer Days, Copenhagen Carnival, Copenhagen Marathon, Golden Days, Copenhagen Film Festival, Copenhagen Blues Festival and ART Copenhagen.
