Field's Travel Guide

Field’s rises as a bold, modern complex amid the glass and steel of Ørestad, one of Copenhagen’s most ambitious new neighbourhoods. Purpose-built in the early 2000s and opened in 2004, the centre was designed by Scandinavian architects who leaned into clean lines, generous natural light and wide internal boulevards. At roughly 115,000 square metres and three main public levels, it ranks among the largest shopping malls in Scandinavia and a landmark for this side of the city.Inside, the layout feels more like an indoor streetscape than a traditional corridor mall. Long sightlines, open atriums and frequent seating clusters are intended to make navigating the 130‑plus shops intuitive. The overall palette is understated, with pale surfaces and functional detailing that foreground the colourful storefronts rather than competing with them.

Field’s is best known for its breadth of shopping. International fashion names such as Zara, H&M and & Other Stories sit alongside Danish chains like Søstrene Grene and Normal, plus sportswear, outdoor gear and lifestyle boutiques. The centre’s scale allows you to browse everything from fast fashion and sneakers to Scandinavian homewares and tech without leaving the building.At ground level, a vast Bilka hypermarket underpins Field’s role in daily life. Here locals stock up on groceries, home goods, clothing basics and even bicycles, turning the centre into a practical one-stop venue rather than a purely discretionary mall. Supplementing retail, you will also find services such as a chiropractor, private healthcare facilities, dental clinic and personal care providers.

Food is a key part of the experience at Field’s. Across the three levels you encounter coffee bars, juice counters and casual eateries, but the heart of it all is the upper-level food lounge. This space gathers more than 20 cafés and restaurants into a single, light-filled zone overlooking the mall. Seating ranges from communal tables to more intimate corners, catering to solo visitors, couples and large families.Culinary options span quick burgers, sushi and pizza to buffet concepts and healthier choices. The intention is less about high-end gastronomy and more about reliable, varied fuel for a long shopping day or a pre-cinema meal. With extended opening hours matching the mall’s 10:00–20:00 schedule, it is as handy for an early lunch as it is for an early evening bite.

Beyond shopping and food, Field’s positions itself as an entertainment hub. A Nordisk Film cinema complex with nine screens, modern recliner seating and 4DX technology brings blockbuster energy to the first floor. For many locals, it doubles as their neighbourhood cinema, with the added perk of shops and dining right outside the foyer.Families are particularly well served. On the top floor, BOUNCE operates an indoor adrenaline park combining trampolines, parkour-style elements and climbing features. Elsewhere in the centre, themed playgrounds and soft play areas give younger children room to expend energy between errands. A daycare centre integrated into the complex reflects how closely Field’s is woven into the everyday rhythm of Ørestad’s residents.

The centre’s owner, Steen & Strøm, has embedded ambitious sustainability targets across its portfolio, and Field’s has been recognised with a “Very Good” rating in a BREEAM In‑Use assessment. Energy efficiency measures, emissions reductions and accessibility by public transport underpin efforts to make such a large building more climate-conscious.At the same time, Field’s operates as a community gathering point, hosting seasonal activities during school holidays, exhibitions and occasional neighbourhood events. For visitors, this means that beyond the shops and screens there is often something else happening in the public spaces, reinforcing the feeling that the mall is as much a civic interior as it is a commercial one.

With three primary levels and several anchor tenants, planning helps. Many travellers pair a visit with a flight connection or a stay in nearby hotels, using Field’s for last‑minute shopping and meals. The abundance of seating, information points and clear floor numbering makes orienting yourself straightforward, even if you only have an hour or two.Those with more time can treat Field’s as a weatherproof day out: start with a slow browse of design and fashion, break for lunch in the food lounge, add a movie or trampoline session, and finish by stocking up at the hypermarket. All of this unfolds indoors, protected from Copenhagen’s sea breeze, making the mall a practical anchor in any season.
