How To Apply
We invite galleries to apply to participate in Enter Art Fair 2026, which will take place from August 27 – 30 in the historical venue Lokomotivværkstedet. Find below everything good to know before applying, discover our 2026 Fair Package and learn more about prices and practical information.
Enter Art Fair has found its home in Lokomotivværkstedet, a remarkable venue located right next to Copenhagen’s central station and close to the vibrant Meatpacking District. This historical gem, originally an industrial factory, once played a crucial role in maintaining Denmark’s locomotives. The venue has a raw, rustic charm, featuring multi-level floors and original supporting columns. Abundant natural light fills the space, and there is direct access to the adjoining garden, where our outdoor sculpture exhibition and dining areas are located.

We are committed to transparency and prompt communication, ensuring that applicants receive the results of their submissions shortly after the evaluation.
