The Park of Music

Kildeparken is one of the oldest parks in Aalborg, as it was landscaped in 1802. The beautiful park is known for its long list of classical pieces by famous artists, who have created both statues, scultpures and fountains. The most famous piece in the park is the Park of Music, which is a collection of trees that have been planted since 1987 by artists who have performed in Aalborg Culture and Congress Center. Most of these trees can be activated to plays three different tunes of the artists, who includes, among others sir Cliff Richard, Sting, Kenny Rogers, Take That, Rod Stewart and sir Elton John. The charming park is hosting a string of events each year. The largest annual event in Kildeparken is by far the carnival of Aalborg in May, which attracts most than 20.000 guests to a huge party in Kildeparken. Moreover, it is the place for childrens activities with a modern playground, or a separate childrens carnival in May each year.
