About
The Optica Quantum 2.0 Conference and Exhibition is organized by Optica, the society formerly known as OSA that serves the optics and photonics community, and focuses on the second quantum revolution: building practical quantum technologies from photonic and optical systems. The 2027 edition runs from 6 to 10 June 2027 at the Bella Center in Copenhagen, Denmark. The programme addresses quantum computing and simulation, quantum communication and networking, quantum sensing and metrology, and the enabling photonic hardware — sources, detectors and integrated circuits — that underpins them. The conference brings together academic researchers, national laboratories and the growing quantum industry, pairing invited and contributed talks with an exhibition of instruments and components. Attendees gain a photonics-centred view of quantum technology progress, contact with the European quantum ecosystem that Copenhagen anchors, and sessions that bridge fundamental research and engineering practice. For scientists and engineers working where optics meets quantum information, Quantum 2.0 is a focused meeting point on the international conference calendar.

Planning your trip to Copenhagen
Contains sponsored linksThe Optica Quantum 2.0 Conference and Exhibition runs 6–10 June 2027 at the Bella Center in Copenhagen's Ørestad district, a short metro hop from the old town. Early June is the Danish capital's golden window: 18–21°C, daylight stretching past 10 p.m. and the harbor swimming season just beginning. Quantum researchers will find a city that pairs Niels Bohr's scientific legacy with Scandinavia's most relaxed urban rhythm — rent a bike and the whole week gets easier.
Getting there & around
Copenhagen Airport (CPH) is unusually convenient: the M2 metro reaches the city center in 15 minutes, and the Bella Center has its own station on the M1 line — from the airport, change at Christianshavn for a total journey of about 20 minutes. Trains from the airport also cross the Øresund bridge to Malmö in Sweden in 20 minutes. Within town, the driverless metro runs around the clock.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Welcome Pickups. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on EconomyBookings.
Staying connected
Danish networks deliver fast 5G everywhere, and EU roaming covers European visitors. Others should install an eSIM before flying — Copenhagen is close to cashless, so being online on arrival matters more than usual. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
After the sessions
Niels Bohr Institute surroundings. The institute on Blegdamsvej, where Bohr assembled the founders of quantum mechanics in the 1920s and 30s, is a working research building rather than a museum, but the facade and its plaque are a short detour from the lakes — a fitting pilgrimage for a Quantum 2.0 crowd. Combine it with a walk around the Sortedams Lake loop.
Tivoli Gardens. The 1843 pleasure garden next to Central Station mixes rides, concerts and gardens with a dose of Danish nostalgia. In June it stays open late under long twilight, making it the obvious post-session rendezvous. Evening entry tickets are cheap if you skip the rides; the Friday open-air concerts draw big local crowds. Tickets on Tiqets →
Nyhavn and a harbor boat tour. The postcard row of gabled townhouses is the launching point for one-hour canal cruises past the Opera House, Amalienborg and the Little Mermaid. June departures run until early evening and the light stays photogenic throughout. Go on arrival day to orient yourself; boats also leave from Ved Stranden with smaller crowds. Tickets on Tiqets →
Islands Brygge Harbour Bath. Copenhagen's harbor is clean enough to swim in, and the Islands Brygge baths — ten minutes from the Bella Center by metro plus a short walk — open for the season in early June. Locals pour in after work; bring swimwear and join them for the most Copenhagen experience available. Free entry, lifeguards on duty.
Good to know
How do I get from Copenhagen Airport to the Bella Center?
Take the M2 metro toward the city and change at Christianshavn to the M1 toward Vestamager; Bella Center has its own station. The whole journey takes about 20 minutes.
What is Copenhagen weather like in early June?
Typically 18–21°C by day and around 11°C at night, with long daylight until past 10 p.m. Showers pass through quickly; a light jacket is all you need.
Is Copenhagen cash-free?
Nearly. Cards and mobile payments are accepted everywhere, including street food stands and public transport, and many places no longer take cash at all. There is no need to withdraw Danish kroner for a conference week.
