Denmark's Food Festivals
Copenhagen Cooking, one of Europe's most prestigious food festivals, was founded by the Danes to honor Copenhagen's and Denmark's culinary heritage.
Throughout the festival, top restaurant chefs will pay tribute to the country's Nordic cuisine tradition. The festival includes over 100 distinct activities ranging from small dinners with Danish chefs to massive cuisine festivals attended by thousands. During Harvest Feast, 1,500 people eat at a 1/4-mile-long table on Frederiksberg Allé (Hstfest). The meal is prepared by eight neighborhood restaurants in collaboration with local farmers. The Harvest Feast tickets are DKK 300 (approximately $44) and include a three-course dinner from one of the eight participating restaurants.
When you buy your ticket, you choose which restaurant(s) you want to try because each one has its own menu. Attendees must, however, bring their own plates, utensils, and so on.
Fortunately, Frederiksberg Allé has stores where you can purchase cutlery for the occasion. You have the option of purchasing drinks at the bar or bringing your own. Tickets will be available for purchase on the Copenhagen Cooking website after June 25.
Helsinki Baltic Herring Festival
It is not yet established, but it usually occurs around the first two weeks of October.
Every October, fishermen dock their tiny boats at Helsinki's Market Square pier to sell their catch. Throughout the area, there is a lot of herring prepared in various ways, as well as other meals. Two of the fair's events are a competition for the best herring dish and a race of classic sailing ships. Despite being a niche festival, Silakkamarkkinat is an old tradition in Helsinki that has been held every year since 1743.
2022 Taste of Helsinki The date has not yet been set, despite the fact that it is traditionally held in June. Taste of Helsinki, Finland's largest gourmet food and wine festival, will bring something unique to food festivals in Europe in 2022. In addition to other activities, twelve of the city's top eateries, including three Michelin-starred establishments, will prepare a picnic lunch for you during this festival. There's plenty of beer, wine, and champagne to go along with it. If you're traveling throughout Scandinavia, you might be able to time your trip to coincide with the event.
