Distances and competitions in 2024

by Maja Lorentzen, communications manager

In the upcoming year's event, we're shaking things up for TrygFonden Copenhagen Swim.

We've decided to make Friday a chill day with a focus on social vibes, while Saturday will host the event's competitions and the crowning of the oldest male and female participants. This excludes the Krüger Relay, which in 2024 will only take place on Friday.

So, the competitions on different distances are as described below.

All participants who complete their distance will, of course, still receive a medal in the starting and finishing area. Read more about the event's medals and competitions here.
