Building Green BG:VEST is a Danish event focused on sustainability in construction and the built environment. Its purpose is to bring professionals together to share knowledge, experience and practical approaches to the green transition in buildings and cities.1 The 2027 edition takes place over two days, 28–29 April, at Aarhus Congress Center in Aarhus.2
The event is intended for people working across the construction value chain, as well as others interested in making construction and cities more sustainable.1 Its format combines talks, debates and case-based presentations with an exhibition of products and solutions relevant to the transition. Attendance is free, and three stages are located within the exhibition area.1
The programme is arranged in four thematic tracks. Participants can follow one track or combine sessions, with topics spanning issues such as living cities, material choices, resilient infrastructure and urban resources.2 The event’s official English page notes that most sessions are in Danish, with a limited number in English.1 The 2027 programme page reports more than 90 speakers from across the value chain.2
BG:VEST is created by Building Green. Building Green’s first event was held in 2011, and the organization describes itself as a Danish knowledge platform and provider of professional events and conferences on sustainable construction.211 It is part of Insight Events, based in Copenhagen.11
