Like many cities in Europe one of the best things you can do is visit when the weather is nice and spend a lot of time out on the streets during the day. Whether alone, trying to pick up single girls in Copenhagen, or with a date that will be your best plan of attack.
These old cities with their historical building have an inherently romantic charm to them. It will be a fun afternoon for you, and if you are on a date hopefully it helps to get her in the mood.

Now that you have a list of the best singles nightlife spots lets talk about the dating culture here for a second. One thing you might notice is that you don’t really see guys approaching girls in your area that they didn’t go to the venue with.
That is considered rude in Denmark, and it isn’t done too much. As a tourist they probably won’t hold it against you, but they also may not be very receptive when you try to pick them up. Like many cities in the world ‘social circle’ game will be the best way to hook up, but that takes time.
That means work your way into a group of friends, get accepted, and then make your move from there. Many guys reading this are probably just traveling through hoping to get laid quickly and won’t have the patience for that, but if you can pull it off it can work wonders.
There is no negative stigma about sex like in America, if a Copenhagen girl likes you she usually won’t have any problem hooking up. It is just working your way into her click which can be the problem.
We aren’t saying not to approach local women at clubs, you might as well try, just be ready to get blown off frequently. One of the main areas for singles nightlife is in Norrebro by the university you can find some student bar districts, Dupong at Griffenfeldsgade 52 is known for its beer pong and there are plenty of other pick up bars nearby. The Nyhavn is another good bar district.
If you are reading this months in advance before you plan your trip try to align your visit with the Distortion Summer Music Festival. Overall you can have a lot of fun here but social circle game takes time, it would be a lot cooler if the girls here were as quick to hook up as in Oslo.
Meet Copenhagen Girls During The Day
Depending on what time of year you visit you may or may not have a lot of options for day game. If the weather is nice head to touristy areas since the local Copenhagen girls aren’t that big on strangers approaching them.
The Langelinje Pier, Stork Fountain Square, and Nyhavn would be good areas with lots of foot traffic and plenty of cafes nearby. If you are visiting in colder months then head to Stroget where there are many shops.
Some other malls and shopping districts in the city which would be great for meeting single women are:
- Fields
- Fisketorvet
- Emporia
- Langelinie Outlet
Chat With Girls Online
So far we have told you about plenty of nightclubs, singles bars, and some decent day game options. However we also told you that the local girls aren’t too open to strangers hitting on them in public, it just isn’t in the local custom to do so.
But that certainly doesn’t mean Copenhagen girls don’t want to get laid, far from it actually. They just go out with a group of friends and don’t want them to think they are a slut for hooking up with a stranger.
However if you try to chat with them online their friends won’t know anything about it. This is how they can get a little naughty but save face with the people they care about, and that is why you can find hundreds of women in your area on Adult Friend Finder, and hundreds more around Denmark.
This isn’t your typical dating site where you go to look for your future wife. This is a site geared towards hooking up and casual sex. Some times you just end up getting laid with a one night stand, other times you find a girl to Netflix and chill with to get you through a long winter.
If you are trying to hook up with girls in Copenhagen Adult Friend Finder is probably the best resource you are going to find.

Enjoy Dating Copenhagen Girls
You definitely should try to visit this city during the warm summer months if possible, during the Distortion Music Festival would be best. You will have so many more options for dating or hooking up if you do.
During the cold winter months things get quite a bit harder. People aren’t out and about as much and day dates will be a lot more boring. However with nothing better to do those girls near you from Adult Friend Finder will probably be up to Netflix and chill more often, so it all evens out in the end.
That wraps up our best places to meet girls in Copenhagen plus the dating guide, enjoy yourself.
