KONTUR

KONTUR – Study Start Festival

Kontur is Kolding’s very own FREE study start festival, bringing together students from across Campus Kolding every year.

We are incredibly excited to once again gather all students from IBA/Coventry, SDU, UC SYD, and Kolding School of Design for a huge celebration of the start of the semester. New and returning students can look forward to magical concerts, creative workshops, chill lounge areas, and a massive party!

The festival takes place again in 2027 at Godset UJNFOR – just a short walk from the campus area.

More information coming soon.

A festival made for you!

Kontur is a study start festival that has it all. Whether you are into creative workshops, cozy lounge areas, or magical concerts – there’s something for everyone.

THANK YOU FOR THIS YEAR!

Thank you so much to all you wonderful students who helped make KONTUR 2026 another fantastic experience! Despite rain and wind, you turned up in large numbers with communal singing, dancing, laughter and cozy moments.

Local Music Programme

This year’s music programme was especially local!

We featured, among others, talent from Sonic College with a Sonic Showcase, the lovely Irmelin, and the festive Ubuntu:fest. Even the headliners had a connection to Kolding with Mekdes, who grew up in the city, and Guldimund, who has studied in Slicetown.

In addition, we got a surprise performance from Kedde together with Mekdes, where they sang the song “Jeg Håber”. Kedde and Mekdes know each other from Kolding, where they started their music careers on the Kolding music scene.

The music programme also included the Copenhagen duo Smøgmænd, the Swedish music collective Fauna, and the Danish singer Angående Mig.
