April
April in Copenhagen is the month the sun makes its first move of its comeback. Over the Winter months, as temperatures plunge and the day shortens, sunlight can be visible through the dense overcast sky for as little as one hour per day. In April that number bumps up to five hours a day of sunlight. The first tentative signs of Spring in Copenhagen are on display in April.

It’s not unheard of for temperatures to climb into the º60s (F) in Copenhagen, but it’s better to expect days nearing º50 (F) and nights a few ticks above freezing. Copenhagen’s café and museum cultures are in full swing in April, so bring good walking shoes, a heavy jacket, and some comfortable gloves. An umbrella isn’t a bad idea. It rains frequently in Copenhagen in April, but that rain tends more often than not to be a quick drizzle.
The average high temperature in a Copenhagen April is º49 (F)/º9 (C). The average lows are º36/º2, with the overall average temperature at º43/º6. Every April in Copenhagen there are an average of 7 days below freezing and 17 days with fog.
