New Year's Reception 2024

Foreign representations in Denmark and Danish cultural stakeholders with an interest in the international cultural collaborations are invited to a New Year's Reception and Networking Event

For the event, we will celebrate Danish cultural engagement abroad and take the opportunity to discuss the direction and trends for international cultural collaborations in 2024. The New Year's Reception will also serve as a networking hub for Danish actors from all sectors of the arts and culture, as well as for foreign representations in Denmark.

In addition to insights from the Secretariat for International Cultural Collaboration at the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, perspectives from various industry stakeholders will be presented, including:

  • Lina Gandløse, State Secretary for Trade and Global Sustainability, Ministry of Foreign Affairs

  • Lise Bach Hansen, Head of programming, Talks & Literature, Royal Danish Library
  • Michael Folmer Wessman, Chief Consultant, Danish Chamber of Commerce
  • Anni Nørskov Mørch, Chair of Committee, Danish Arts Foundation

To kick off the year on a festive note there will be a musical performance by the singer Fine.
