Photo Print Market at the Royal Danish Theatre - June 13
For the first time ever, the Copenhagen Photo Festival presents a Photo Print Market during the festival itself — and in truly grand surroundings. On Thursday 13 June, we invite photography lovers, collectors, and curious visitors to explore a vibrant marketplace set in the foyer of the Royal Danish Theatre, right on Kongens Nytorv.
The market builds on our popular biannual print events at Absalon in Vesterbro — but this special edition marks a new chapter, offering audiences the chance to discover and buy photographic artworks as part of the festival’s official programme.
Throughout the day, the theatre’s main foyer will be filled with photography stalls showcasing a rich selection of art and documentary prints by both established and emerging voices from across Europe and the Nordic region — including artists like Nancy Munford, Anne-Mette Kelter, and Ole Christiansen.
The market offers a unique opportunity to discover new work, connect with photographers in person, and hear the stories behind the images. Several participants are travelling to Copenhagen specifically to take part in this one-day event.
“We’re so excited to bring the buzzing, creative atmosphere of the Photo Print Market into the very heart of the festival. It’s a wonderful way to breathe new life into existing prints and let them find new homes — and at the same time, it adds a lively and social dimension to the programme, where artists and audiences meet face to face in beautiful, historic surroundings.”
— Maja Dyrehauge Gregersen, Festival Director
