Folkemødet 2026

We bring stories to life – also at Folkemødet. Look forward to important, entertaining, and inspiring talks and debates, as an array of great personalities from culture, media, and society grace our stages and offer their perspectives on the world around us and life up close. We will take the pulse of Danish film and literature, discuss the role of media, and investigate the significance of stories to us. We will also delve into how children and young people in difficult circumstances navigate society, and how we ensure a strong education for the future. See you at Havnegade 9, G28, Allinge, Friday, June 12th.
