COPENHELL CON – A GEEK CONVENTION IN THE DARK HEART OF COPENHELL
With 35,000 visitors in 2024, COPENHELL Con has been one of the greatest COPENHELL attractions since its inception in 2022. There is a great overlap between enthusiasm for rock and metal on onside and everything geeky on the other – from science fiction and superheroes to retro horror movies and comic books.
In the last three years, COPENHELL Con has given the audience the chance to take a break from the wild festival site, step into more relaxed surroundings and get a unique chance to experience a meeting between the music and geek universes at the festival. Through the years, guests have got the chance to meet famous comic book artists, play classic arcade games, try virtual reality experiences, recharge their batteries with board games, explore interesting stores and stalls as well as experience exciting stage shows in the Con hall.
Music artists visiting COPENHELL have also discovered COPENHELL Con, and they love visiting our geek universe. World-famous names like Corey Taylor, Scott Ian, Kerry King, Robb Flynn, Myrkur and SKYND have visited the Con stage to talk about their geeky side. The stage has also given the audience great experiences with Danish entertainment profiles like Lars Mikkelsen, Peter Madsen and Jakob Stegelmann.
We look forward to opening the doors to COPENHELL Con again in 2025 and bid all festival guests welcome – whether they are geeks or not! One of our cardinal thoughts is that COPENHELL Con is for everyone: Both those who just want to have a look inside and dip their toes and those who want to dive all the way to the bottom in all the fascinating geek universes here and engage in the community. In here, enthusiasm and curiosity are the driving forces, and we can’t wait to give the audience a lot of new and exciting experiences.
See you in June – you can find announced stage shows and their dates in the program in COPENHELL’s app and on this site.
