Rocking out in a wooden-beamed warehouse in live-and-let-live Christiania, Loppen delivers both established and emerging acts from Denmark and beyond. Music styles are as eclectic as the crowds, with anything from rock and funk to post-punk, jazz and electronic. While gigs generally take place Wednesday to Sunday, always check the website before heading in.
