You’ll jump straight into playful art rooms at IKONO Copenhagen — think ball pits, mirrors, and wild colors — with your entry ticket included. Expect laughter, odd surprises, and plenty of chances to be silly together right in the city center. This isn’t just looking at art; it’s being part of it.
We were already giggling before we even made it past the first room at IKONO Copenhagen — I mean, you don’t expect to see grown-ups rolling around in a pit of silver balls, but there we were. The staff just grinned and waved us on, like they’d seen everything before (they probably have). There’s this faint scent of fresh paint and something sweet, maybe from the neon-lit room with all those giant lollipops — I didn’t touch them, but I wanted to. It’s not a museum where you tiptoe around; you’re supposed to get involved, and honestly, that took me a minute to get used to.
Each space is its own thing — one minute you’re under a rain of soft ribbons, the next you’re standing in front of mirrors that make you look like a cartoon version of yourself. My friend tried to take a “serious” photo but burst out laughing when she saw her reflection. There’s no guide walking you through, just friendly folks in black t-shirts who’ll snap a photo if you ask or point out which door leads to the next surprise. We lost track of time in the room with glowing orbs; I still think about how quiet it felt in there, even with people around.
The whole IKONO experience is about an hour (give or take — we lingered), right in central Copenhagen so it’s easy to find by metro or bus. You don’t need any special skills or fitness; honestly, my grandma would’ve loved it too if she’d come along. It’s one of those places where nobody looks at you funny for acting like a kid again. So yeah, if you want something different from the usual sightseeing — and especially if it’s raining outside — this is the ticket.
