Following the great participation from all volunteers last year, we are excited to partner up again with Copenhagen Dragon Boat Festival for a special cleanup on the midsummer Sunday, 23rd of June.

The event will take place at Frederikskaj, South Harbour in Copenhagen where you can participate in our cleanup for free, as always. It is also free to enter the Dragon Boat Festival area all day.

The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional Asian festival, which has a history of more than 2,000 years. At the festival, you can watch dragon boat races, cheer on your favourite teams, dive into Chinese culture, and experience hundreds of booths of pan-Asian food and drinks!

Here is the detailed schedule for the cleanup :

13:00 Meetup at Frederikskaj, 2450 by the Nordic Ocean Watch Banner and welcome by our team

13:15-14:15 Cleanup the Dragon Boat Festival area

14:15-14:45 Trash sorting and weighing - Citizen Science in Action!

Snacks and water will be served during the cleanup as a special treat for your effort to protect our ocean . After our event, you are more than welcome to stay and continue enjoying the Dragon Boat competitions and festival performance till 18:00 in the midsummer night.

We are looking forward to seeing you!
