In the heart of Vejgaard, Aalborg, a former local bar has found new life. What was once known as Fedtebrød — a classic pub and community hangout on Østerbro — is now a cultural association driven by creativity, community spirit, and a flair for the unexpected.
But 2025 marks a new chapter. With open arms, Fedtebrød now hosts Gerningsstedet, a legendary underground art collective that helped shape the Danish underground scene with its notorious parties from 1999 until 2005, when the original venue was lost to fire.
The Roots: Fedtebrød in Aalborg
Fedtebrød has existed at multiple locations over the years but was best known as a watering hole on Aalborg’s Østerbro district — a place of late-night stories, local faces, and spontaneous encounters. Since closing its doors as a bar, it has re-emerged as a cultural space in Vejgaard, now run by volunteers and grassroots creatives. The transformation from pub to community space reflects a broader shift — from consumption to co-creation.

Enter Gerningsstedet: Underground Art Moves North
In 2025, Fedtebrød took a bold step by inviting Gerningsstedet into the house.
Gerningsstedet (literally: The Crime Scene) is not just a group — it’s a mythos. Between 1998 and 2005, it helped shape Copenhagen’s underground scene by occupying forgotten corners of the urban landscape, known for unauthorized parties, surreal installations, and an uncompromising DIY ethos. The parties came to an end when the original venue burned down in 2005, marking the close of an iconic era.
Now, under the creative leadership of Static Corn and SAIDK, the group brings its raw artistic pulse to Aalborg, continuing a tradition of underground celebration and cultural intervention.
Glistrup Gård: The Dragør Legacy
Before Vejgaard, there was Glistrup Gård — a historic farm in Dragør that once hosted some of the wildest nights in Gerningsstedet’s history.
Throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s, the abandoned Glistrup farmhouse was home to DIY parties, installations, and experimental gatherings. A hidden hub for electronic music, visual art and countercultural expression, it stood as a symbol of how spaces — even decaying, rural, forgotten ones — can be reimagined as temporary utopias.
Though the main building was lost to fire in 2005, its spirit lives on in those who danced through the nights under broken beams and low-hanging lights.
A Living Space for Unfiltered Culture
As Fedtebrød and Gerningsstedet intertwine, they form something rare: a living cultural organism that honors history, challenges norms, and invites the public to be more than spectators — to be participants.
Whether you come for the art, the vibe, the stories, or just the unknown, one thing’s certain: you’ll leave a little different than you came.
