6 ways to do Christmas in Copenhagen like a local🎄
Whether you're visiting Copenhagen for leisure or business, we always recommend that you do like the locals and seek out more authentic experiences and activities. And Christmas is no exception.
Here are our 6 ways to do Copenhagen during Christmas:
🎄Traditional Christmas lunch: Chances are you've already heard about our delicious open-faced sandwiches known as smørrebrød. But during the festive season, this delicacy truly takes centre stage when Copenhageners go for traditional Christmas lunches with friends, family and colleagues. Going to a smørrebrød restaurant is a must - just make sure to book in advance.
🎄 Gløgg: We've said it before, and we'll say it again. No Christmas in Copenhagen is complete without mulled wine, also known as gløgg. In fact, you'll be hard-pressed to find a Dane who can remember a December month where gløgg did not play a part. Whether you drink it at Christmas markets, food markets or cafes, there is some for every taste. And lots of non-alcoholic options as well.
🎄Christmas markets: Copenhagen is a genuine Christmas city, where it is impossible not to get in the spirit for the Christmas holiday season. The best place to soak up the atmosphere is at one of Copenhagen’s many Christmas markets.
🎄 Santa Lucia parade: On 13 December, you can experience an alternative take on the traditional Danish Santa Lucia parade, when kayaks sail through the city's canals dressed in lights and Christmas decorations.
🎄 Ice skating: Across the city, there are several picturesque ice skating rinks that attract locals and visitors of all ages and ice skating abilities😉.
🎄Alternative spa experience: Get your saltwater injection in a spa sailing around Copenhagen’s harbour or enjoy the unrivalled harbour views. CopenHot offers a spa experience that we bet you’ve never tried before. Relax in an outdoor hot tub with 40-degree hot water that guarantees you'll get warm even on a cold winter day. You can also opt for an authentic sauna session in one of the wood-fired saunas.
