B&O PLAY at Copenhagen Airport

Henrik Lind, for the past 11 years owner of the Bang & Olufsen store in Hellerup, a suburb of Copenhagen, presents Bang & Olufsen's innovative and playful hi-fi brand B&O PLAY at Nytorv in mid April 2014. This makes Copenhagen Airport the first airport anywhere to feature a store with products from the highly-respected Bang & Olufsen brand. Bang & Olufsen products are sold in more than one hundred countries worldwide.

“Our aim is to meet all passenger demands and offer them value for money at the Copenhagen Airport shopping centre. Obviously, that means different things to different people, so our focus must be to open shops catering to all tastes, offering both highly reputed Danish brands and major international brands. We are therefore very pleased to welcome one of our local brands, B&O PLAY, here at Copenhagen Airport,“ said Lise Ryevad, Director, Airport Service.

B&O PLAY focuses on a youthful and more digitally-inclined customer group looking for quality products for when they are on the move, such as earphones and portable music systems.

The new store will feature a wide selection of B&O PLAY's characteristic range of audiovisual products such as the BeoPlay H6 headphones and the BeoPlay A9 music system.

Copenhagen Airport is a leading gateway connecting the Nordic region with the rest of the world, and that gives us a unique and very attractive group of customers in the airport's dynamic and luxurious settings.
