Copenhagen is an amazing city to visit – whether you come alone, with friends, or you bring your family. Here, there are exciting experiences for everyone.
The city can be experienced and explored from both the water and the land. The metro makes it easy to get around, but you can also rent a boat or a kayak to see the city from a different perspective as you glide through the beautiful canals.

Event Ticket: Get around the city easily and affordably on race day
The easiest way to get around Copenhagen during the Copenhagen Marathon is by public transport – especially the metro.
In this connection, DOT (Din Offentlige Transport) has created a special Event Ticket (Event Billet) for Copenhagen Marathon. With that you can save money on transport around the city — whether you’re a participant or a spectator.
With the event ticket, you can:
- Travel unlimited on public transport for 12 hours
- Choose between a small and a large event ticket (see more below)
- Bring two children under 12 free of charge
How it works:
You can find the event ticket in DOT’s app called “Rejsebillet.” The app is available for free in the App Store and Google Play.
Once you’ve installed the app:
- Go to the “Other tickets” tab
- Select “Special tickets”
- Choose “Event Ticket” for Copenhagen Marathon 2026
- Select either the small or large event ticket
