The ATypI 2025 conference will be held in historic Copenhagen, Denmark, a vibrant, sea-encircled jewel watched over by Edvard Eriksen’s Little Mermaid bronze and granite spellbinder. We’re returning to København after holding two memorable events there in 1973 and 2001. Mark your calendars for April 22–26, and prepare for a typographic experience rooted in Danish style, innovation, culture, and happiness. The Royal Danish Academy will be our headquarters for a week of type, lettering, education, branding, history, and all things related to typography, design, culture, and tech.
We’re wrapping up the program timetable right now, but rest assured, you’re in for incredible insights, enlightenment, and inspirational innovation from some of the world’s best and brightest. Additional speakers will be announced in the next few days. Biographical details on speakers and descriptions of their sessions will be available on the website soon.
