TOP 3 CHRISTMAS ACTIVITIES IN COPENHAGEN


Now that Christmas is rapidly approaching, many of our owners are leaving Copenhagen to celebrate Christmas in a warmer climate. Luckily, the locals who stay behind are not left alone in the city, as during Christmas Copenhagen experiences a surge of tourists coming to the city to enjoy the Danish Christmas atmosphere or to take care of the Christmas shopping in Copenhagen.

In case you still have not figured out where to go and what to do during Christmas in Copenhagen, we have compiled a short list of our top 3 recommendations for Christmas activities in Copenhagen.

1. Tivoli Gardens
Tivoli is open all through Christmas. Even on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. However, the beautiful and old amusement part from 1843 closes at 4pm on the 24th. This year Tivoli has an alpine-inspired theme with lots of lights and a very cosy atmosphere.

2. Strøget
Strøget is the pedestrian, traffic-free, 1.1 km shopping area in downtown Copenhagen. Strøget is extremely popular among locals and tourists alike, who want to have an enjoyable time while also making the necessary Christmas shopping on Strøget. During Christmas, there are many temporary shops along Strøget selling mostly traditional Danish Christmas candy such as caramelized almonds, or “brændte mandler” in Danish.

3. Christmas markets
Markets are generally very popular in Copenhagen, but Christmas markets are even more popular among the Danes. Going to Christmas markets is a favourite weekend activity for families with children, where you can purchase any kind of Christmas-related goods – both edible and not. There are many Christmas markets in Copenhagen, such as the one on Kultorvet, which is very popular, but also the one inside the Tivoli Gardens is an all-time favourite of many Danes. If you want an alternative Christmas experience, the Christmas market in Christiania is also very recommendable.

We have many apartments at reduced prices over Christmas, so make sure to swing by our special offers to see if we have something that suits you.

We hope to meet you in one of our apartments this Christmas.
