Copenhagen, 5 March 2024
Are you coming to HAFNIA 24 & Copenhagen?
The application deadline for HAFNIA 24 was 31st December, and we had a goal of filling 1300 frames, and a maximum of 1500 frames that will fit into the Hafnia 24 venue. We have had 2058 frames applied for, and we are of course extremely happy with the huge interest in exhibiting at Hafnia 24. The commissioners have now received information on which exhibits have been approved and which exhibits we unfortunately have had to decline for the exhibition.
FEPA has 44 federation members and quite impressively, 40 countries have nominated a commissioner for HAFNIA 24. Besides European exhibitors we will also have several exhibits from USA through the American “Scandinavian Collectors Club” society.
Individual support for HAFNIA 24 plays a crucial role for the exhibition, and we are therefore asking for your support, please. By becoming a member of the HAFNIA 24 Club, you will join a group of passionate and committed supporters of philately. Your support will help us bringing our philatelic event to life. We offer three levels of support:
Silver membership: 200 Euro
Gold membership: 750 Euro
Platinum membership: 3000 Euro.

The HAFNIA 24 venue: “Øksnehallen” (The old ox-hall”) then and now
If you are planning to visit HAFNIA 24, there are seven hotels within 500 meters from the venue – the list of these hotels and links to their websites can be found on www.hafnia24.com. And more than 10 additional hotels are within walking distance of the venue. The exhibition will take place in the very center of Copenhagen in the old Ox-hall “Øksnehallen” build in 1901, which today is of the most iconic exhibition hall in Copenhagen. The hall has 5000 square meters of space for the 1500 frames, dealers etc.
One of the hotels closest to the venue is a five-star luxury hotel located in the very building that used to be the Copenhagen Post Office which is seen on several Danish stamps: www.villacopenhagen.com
The famous amusement park TIVOLI is less than 500 meters away and the Copenhagen Town Square is 1 km from the exhibition and from this square you enter directly into the shopping street “Strøget”.
Copenhagen Airport is only 8 km from the exhibition venue and there are direct trains every 20 minutes.
Please make plans to come to Copenhagen in October!
