• As Aalborg is a university city, you can expect to eat well whatever your budget. There are tons of restaurants and cafes to sample local and international eats, from Italian cafes to Japanese sushi restaurants, Spanish tapas bars to French bistros.
• Fuelled by its young student population, Aalborg has a vibrant nightlife, with plenty of bars and clubs providing after dark entertainment.

Back in present day Aalborg, don’t miss a trip to the Utzon Centre. This group of silver boat-shaped pavilions pays homage to Jorn Utzon, (Aalborg native and designer of the world-famous Sydney Opera House). It’s the perfect scenic spot to enjoy a drink at the water’s edge.
