Copenhagen's kulturnatten (the night of culture) is a fun, annual art event -- similar to Seattle Art Crawl -- except more of a big, omnibus, event with something for everyone, ranging from visual and aural arts museum open houses (The Postal Museum with working pneumatic mail tubes), church and streetcorner concerts and even a re-enactment of American Civil War battles :O.
For 70 Kr per adult (40 per child) you get free public transport throughout the metro area for the entire evening and admission to all exhibits. We checked out street choirs and performers, light shows on various buildings, climbed the runde tårn (round tower) to have a look
and nearly made it through a candlelit Frederiskberg Have 
to the zoo where they had some special kid stuff going on, but Malcolm was petering out by this time!
I missed the transvestite fashion show and the halloween costume parade on rollerskates, but I really enjoyed what we did manage to catch. Just another reason to love Copenhagen.
