Normal opening hours are 9am to 6pm on weekdays and 10am to 5pm
on Saturdays. Sunday opening is restricted to a limited number of days per year,
so the large department stores open on Sunday only about once each month. Shops
in large shopping centres may stay open until 7pm on weekdays. The two
main Copenhagen department stores, Illum
and Magasin, have late
opening on Thursday and Friday nights, until 8pm
Copenhagen has many two shopping centres / malls, one at Fisketorvet, close
to Dybbelsbro train station and the Fields centre, close to Ørestad metro station.
The main shopping area in the city is the pedestrianised main
shopping street, Strøget, which has two large department stores, designer
fashion shops and a range of smaller boutiques and chain stores. Denmark has
many home-grown designers, many of whom have their flagship boutiques in the
city centre.
Frederiksberg is also an area with a lot of shops
and a department store close to Frederiksberg metro station.
