Folkets Hus Spillefolk under sejlet på Kulturstationen Vanløse 2015

Folkets Hus Spillefolk emerged more than 40 years ago in the squatted house in Stengade 50 at Nørrebro, Copenhagen. Folkets Hus in Stengade 50 was squatted same month as Christiania got squatted in another part of the town, and folk dansing and playing soon became one of the many activities of the house. Our hompage with sheet musc started in 1997.

We often make dancing conserts, for example once a month for Københavns Folkemusikhus, a (dance group in Copenhagen). We also make our own manthly dance concerts called  “Ramslag” in Metronomen a concert place at  Godthåbsvej 23, Frederiksberg. (see our calender )
