Short description	Performances in Copenhagen.
Location	KB Hallen, Peter Bangsvej, Frederiksberg, Copenhagen, Denmark

The Beatles' 27-date world tour would begin on this date with two concerts in Copenhagen, at 6:00 PM and 9:30 PM, each seen by 4400 people. This tour wuld take them to Denmark, The Netherlands, Australia, and New Zealand. During this date and the next four after it, Jimmy Nicol temporarily replaced Ringo on drums, as Ringo was having his tonsils removed. For Copenhagen, as well as the next ten dates, the setlist was I Saw Her Standing There, I Want To Hold Your Hand, You Can't Do That, All My Loving, She Loves You, Till There Was You, Roll Over Beethoven, Can't Buy Me Love, This Boy, and Long Tall Sally. Sometimes, The Beatles played Twist And Shout in Long Tall Sally's place or played Twist And Shout directly before Long Tall Sally. But on that first Copenhagen show, I Want To Hold Your Hand was the opener, which was then followed by I Saw Her Standing There.
