Toast the New Year at Kongens Nytorv
One of the advantages of celebrating New Year's Eve at Zeleste is the location. From the restaurant, it is only a few steps to Kongens Nytorv, Nyhavn and the harbourfront – some of Copenhagen's most iconic spots to ring in the New Year.
After dinner, we offer champagne and kransekage to go, so you can become part of the city's festive atmosphere at midnight. This gives you the best of both worlds: a calm and exclusive dinner, combined with the chance to take part in Copenhagen's vibrant New Year's celebration just outside the door.
