University of Copenhagen just held its annual bash celebrating all the hotshot scientists, professors, scandals, students, and events of the year.

The commemoration was kickstarted with a formal event at the Ceremonial Hall by Frue Plads. After the compulsory formalities the real party moved to Koncerthuset in DR-Byen.

University celebs strode around in long gowns and tuxedoes, while light projections on the inside and outside of the building welcomed the many fancy guests. Danish singer-songwriter Tina Dickow entertained with her mellow guitar music.
