3 Days of Design 2026 lands across eight Copenhagen districts on 10–12 June with 460-plus exhibitors and a single thesis — ‘Make This Moment Matter’ — pulling Audo Copenhagen in Nordhavn, Fredericia in Rosengård, and Bang & Olufsen’s centennial residence in Christianshavn into the same 72-hour window.
