The event aims to raise awareness about cyclists' rights and promote the benefits of cycling as a sustainable mode of transportation. Participants ride in a relaxed atmosphere, enjoying the city from their saddles and meeting like-minded individuals. During Critical Mass in Copenhagen, there is no fixed route, and cyclists collectively decide where to go. It’s a fun and festive event, often featuring music, flags, and colorful costumes. Besides being a fantastic way to explore the city, it serves as a platform to discuss topics related to urban transport, sustainability, and community engagement. Everyone is welcome, making it a great opportunity for both locals and tourists to be part of a unique experience. So if you find yourself in Copenhagen and want to join a growing movement for sustainable transport, come and participate in Critical Mass.
