Experience the world of glass from the inside: Baltic Sea Glass invites you to a small series of exclusive UNIKA events, where the studio’s skilled glassblowers will demonstrate their craft as they create glass art at an international level. The doors open at 5:30 pm, and visitors will be able to follow the entire process up close as a molten mass of glass at 1150°C is slowly and skilfully transformed into a finished vase or bowl.
Nature is the direct source of inspiration for all the unique pieces, and typically three glassblowers work closely together to create each piece. It is a focused and intense process – come and experience it for yourself! There will also be an opportunity to talk to the glassblowers, who will be happy to explain the ideas behind each piece and the processes involved in their work.
The programme is arranged so that one piece is created during the “first half”. This is followed by a break with a little sparkling wine and snacks, after which another piece will be created.
You can also shop in the store during the evening if you wish. The address is Melstedvej 47, south of Gudhjem. (And if you are unable to attend the event, remember that throughout the season, from Monday to Saturday, you can visit the workshop and watch the glassblowers at work between 10 am and 3 pm).
During Svaneke Market Days, the town square comes alive with local stalls and a warm market atmosphere. Here you can explore Bornholm products, crafts, plants, jewellery, ceramics, knitwear, honey and much more.
The market days are also a great opportunity to take a relaxed walk through Svaneke, enjoy the town’s beautiful streets, visit shops and galleries, and experience the special summer atmosphere that makes the town one of Bornholm’s most charming places. There is often music and small festive features on the square, helping to create a lively and relaxed atmosphere in the heart of the town.
Get ready for laughs, suspense and chicken bingo in Brænderigænget, when Svaneke’s hens enter the arena and the lucky poop numbers of the day are about to be found.
This is not about fast legs or impressive performance – it is about patience, good timing and a hen with just the right gut feeling. The audience follows closely while everyone waits for the decisive dropping, with plenty of laughter, comments from the sidelines and genuine Svaneke atmosphere along the way.
Chicken Poop Bingo has been a regular part of summer in Svaneke for many years, bringing together locals, holidaymakers and curious passers-by for one of the island’s quirkiest experiences. The action takes place in Brænderigænget every Wednesday at 18:00 and every Saturday at 13:00 from June through August. Tickets are normally sold from one hour before the start.
The proceeds help support music and local activities in Svaneke – so you can join the game, enjoy the fun and support the town’s summer life at the same time.
Visit the flea market at Skippertorvet in Nexø and browse stalls filled with flea-market finds, second-hand items, collectables, arts and crafts, and small curiosities.

The atmosphere is relaxed and informal, with plenty of time to browse, shop and find a bargain.
The market is centrally located in Nexø and can easily be combined with a walk through the town, a visit to the harbour or a break at one of the local cafés.
