We ask all our visitors to strive for a safe and comfortable space so that together we can create a shared environment where everyone – at 1.5 metres distance – feels free to enjoy the experience in their own way. We encourage our visitors to be sociable, despite the Covid-19 measures, and to take curiosity and creativity as their starting point.

We also ask for your understanding in following a number of essential guidelines before and during your visit.
