Mojo is a music club in central Copenhagen, found at Løngangstræde 21C, close to the city's old heart. It is best known for live blues and roots music, and it has been part of the Danish blues scene for a long time. Mojo has hosted blues since it changed its name from Rådhuskroen in 1993.
The room holds nearly 130 guests, and that size shapes the evening. The setting is intimate, so the audience sits close to the artists, and the music feels immediate rather than distant. Mojo is a place to hear players up close and to share the room with a crowd that has come for the music.
What to expect
Live concerts are held every night of the year, so there is usually something on whatever day you visit. Blues is the core of the programme, but the club also hosts evenings of soul, rock, jazz, zydeco, bluegrass and similar genres. The name, according to Visit Copenhagen, comes from the lyrics of old blues songs, which suits a venue built around that tradition.
Why go
- A relaxed, local night out in the heart of the Danish capital
- Close-up views of live performers in a small room
- A varied lineup of roots and blues-based music
Mojo suits travellers who want more than a sightseeing stop: an evening with music, a local crowd and an atmosphere that is easy to settle into. Check the club's own website for the current lineup before you go.
