The Copenhagen International Fashion Fair which is destined to be the biggest so far will run from August 7 to August 10. There will be over 2,500 collections, showcasing designs for next year''s spring and summer.

The four day event will reveal the trends in Scandinavian clothing. Copenhagen has a rich history that is evident in its historic buildings and ancient streets, dozens of museums and galleries, the unique Tivoli Gardens and the resident monarchy, the oldest in the world. The city is a place of palaces and pageantry.

The Danish Royal family''s residence is the Amalienborg Palace, while the crown jewels and royal treasures are housed in the Rosenburg Palace. And a quaint feature of Copenhagen life. On royal birthdays, the renaissance Caritas Fountain sprays golden apples rather than water.

Copenhagen is a vibrant, modern city whose fascinating past coexists with the very latest trends in architecture, design and fashion.

The waterside heritage makes Copenhagen one of the treasures of Northern Europe. And no trip to Copenhagen is complete without a look at the fantastic Tivoli Gardens and of course Denmark''s most famous monument, the Little Mermaid.
