14 february - Valentine's Day
In the early 1990s, the Danes began to celebrate Valentine’s Day as the great day of love, inspired by the American custom. It is especially the young and people in love who use the day as an occasion to show their love for each other. Hearts made of flowers, chocolate, pasta or cake are just a few examples of the available options.
FEBRUARY/MARCH - SHROVETIDE
Shrovetide falls on different days each year because – as a legacy from Catholic times – it must begin 40 fast-days before Easter.
