1. Winter Wonderland at Kongens Nytorv

In our view, Kongens Nytorv is one of the most beautiful squares in Copenhagen, and it’s well worth a visit during the festive season when Copenhagen Winter Wonderland brings a touch of winter magic.

In 2026, the historic square will have a 1,300 m² ice rink in the centre, which can be used from mid-November to the end of the year. Entry costs 75 DKK per person, including skate rental in 55 minutes. Book your time slot here.

For 16 years, there was no ice rink at Christmas (partly due to renovations), but we’re glad it has returned and seems set to become a regular tradition.

The rink brings back childhood memories of December days when people would glide in circles across the square.

And of course, there are Christmas stalls nearby.

Don’t forget to admire the famous decorations on the luxurious Hotel d’Angleterre, which light up the square in a new way each year.

If you need to buy more Christmas gifts or warm up, the department store Magasin is right by Kongens Nytorv.

Practical information

Where: In the middle of Kongens Nytorv. Several buses and metro lines stop here.

Here you can take a walk along the water and let the magic of Christmas envelop you in the famous harbour district.

Along the quay, you’ll find Christmas stalls decorated with pine garlands and lights, offering a wide range of food and drink as well as Danish and Scandinavian products.

Discover beautiful woodcraft, Christmas decorations and handmade gifts while enjoying the scent of Christmas spices in the cold winter air.

The Christmas market is ideal to combine with a visit to the ice rink and stalls at Kongens Nytorv mentioned above.

Christmas Market Nytorv & Gammeltorv is said to be the biggest Christmas market in Denmark, and both locals and visitors like to stop by this busy spot just off Strøget.

The Christmas market is best visited after dark, which is quite a lot of the day during the Christmas season! This is when the impressive 3D light installations look their best.

Among the market stalls, you’ll find designers and artisans selling locally made products. Of course, you can also pick up something warm to drink and a bite to eat.

There’s a magical Christmas atmosphere, and the market’s own Santa Claus usually makes an appearance every Saturday. Last year, he arrived at 13:00, but check the website or Facebook page for the latest information.

He poses for free photos, so you can capture a festive family moment to remember.

Is there anything more magical than Christmas in Tivoli Gardens?

Christmas trees, lights everywhere, elf landscapes, lavish decorations and all kinds of Christmas stalls make Tivoli very special at this time of year.

It’s one of the more expensive Christmas markets in Copenhagen, as you will have to pay an entrance fee, but a Christmas trip to Tivoli Gardens is much more than just a Christmas market.

The amusement park transforms into a fairytale Christmas world with beautiful Christmas decorations and lots of stalls with Christmas ornaments, handmade gifts, roasted almonds and warm drinks.

It’s a delightful place to wander, but if you’re with kids or seeking more thrills, you can grab ride passes for the rides.

Tivoli also has a magical light and projection show in front of Nimb.

We always love stopping by ourselves!

6. Christiania Christmas Market

Christiania Christmas Market takes place in Den Grå Hal (The Grey Hall), and it’s a classic market to visit during December.

It’s one of Copenhagen’s oldest and most atmospheric Christmas markets, and reportedly it’s also the largest indoor market of its kind in the Nordic countries.

Among the stalls, you’ll find art, wooden products, Christmas decorations, funny figurines, paper flowers, board games, string lights, hand-dipped candles, bags, jewellery, musical instruments, baked goods and all sorts of other special items.

Remember to bring cash, as many stalls don’t accept MobilePay or credit cards.

Every day there’s also live music, featuring jazz, swing, Balkan music, tango and much more.

At Christiania, there are usually also the “Magical Christmas Lounge & Bazaar” at Gallopperiet, “Christmas Cosiness” at the Opera and “Christmas in the Gate” – a Christmas show at Christiania for children.

And at Pusher Street, you can go ice skating Sunday to Thursday from 11:00 to 21:00 and Friday and Saturday from 11:00 to 22:00.

In other words, there’s plenty to do in Freetown Christiania to get into the festive spirit!

Practical information

Where: The Christmas market is held in Den Grå Hal inside Christiania. There are no parking spaces, but bus 2A stops right outside. Alternatively, you can get off at Christianshavn metro station and walk the last bit. Unfortunately, there’s no room for prams inside, so you’ll have to leave them outside Den Grå Hal.

7. Christmas in Dragør

Christmas in Dragør became known through the Christmas TV series Tidsrejsen from 2014, in which the Christmas market played a central role – and in December 2024, the sequel aired.

But even if you haven’t watched the Christmas series, the old town is still worth a visit.

Every weekend leading up to Christmas, you can explore the charming, historic streets and alleys and enjoy the Christmas market.

To maintain the authentic atmosphere, the 13 original stalls from the TV series are part of the market and contribute to the magical ambience.

Look forward to finding Christmas decorations, wreaths, Christmas ornaments, crocheted dishcloths and potholders, vintage lamps, unique serving stands, aloe vera products, candlesticks, food, drinks, roasted almonds and a children’s tombola.

In Dragør, you can also visit other locations from Tidsrejsen if you or your children want to experience more from the TV series.

Practical information

Where: Christmas in Dragør takes place throughout Dragør town, but the Christmas market itself is at Badstuevælen.

The traditional Christmas market in Haveselskabet’s (the Garden Society’s) beautiful garden is worth a visit if you’re in Frederiksberg at the end of November.

You can find Christmas items, crafts, delicacies, home-baked goods and of course, something warm to drink.

Haveselskabet usually also has a stall in the greenhouse where you can buy gardening books, seeds, vases, gardening tools and other garden-related items.

It’s located right at the entrance to Frederiksberg Garden, which you can fittingly take a walk in after enjoying Haveselskabet’s lovely garden and Christmas market.

9. Christmas Bazaar in the Swedish Church

If you’re in the mood for a bit of Swedish Christmas spirit, head to Østerbro, where Svenska Gustafkyrkan (The Swedish Gustaf Church) hosts its traditional Christmas bazaar the weekend before the first Sunday of Advent.

The Swedish Christmas market in Copenhagen has been running since 1912, and here you will be greeted by volunteers in festive Swedish folk costumes.

There are various lotteries, a small flea market as well as lots of Christmas stalls where you can buy Swedish products, Dala horses, traditional Christmas decorations, gnomes, Advent calendars, textiles, wooden items, Christmas cards, candlesticks, coffee, Swedish glögg, cinnamon buns, julmust, gingerbread cookies and much more.

On Sunday, there’s a Christmas concert in the church at 16:00, featuring the church choir and soloists. Tickets for the concert cost 175 DKK, although we’re still waiting for confirmation of the 2026 programme and ticket prices.

At the Jægersborggade Christmas market, you’ll mainly find the street’s own shops – and they’re great ones!

You can pick up affordable children’s gifts (and support a good cause) at Mødrehjælpen, buy special plants at our favourite plant shop, Plant København, or explore great second-hand and vintage clothes from Tú a Tú and Perfectly Worn Vintage.

Other shops offer a variety of goods, including groceries, ceramics, jewellery, unique designs and handmade crafts.

The street is also home to plenty of great eateries and, of course, excellent coffee from Coffee Collective on the corner of Stefansgade.

11. Flid’s Christmas Market

Flid’s Christmas Market takes place at Nørrebrohallen and is well worth a visit if you’re in Nørrebro between 10 and 13 December.

As at many other Christmas markets, the focus here is on high-quality craftsmanship and design – but it’s indoors, and likely a whole lot warmer than some of the outdoor markets.

Come and meet the creative artists, carefully selected based on criteria such as originality, sustainable materials, design, craftsmanship and production within the EU.

You’ll find ceramics, jewellery, slow fashion, textile art, home decor, graphic design, photography and other handmade designs. Plus, you can enjoy excellent coffee from Darcy’s Kaffe.

The RAW Christmas market is a craft market that, like Flid’s Christmas Market, is held in Nørrebrohallen.

On the last Saturday in November, the multi-purpose hall (Multisal) is filled with ceramics, clothing, jewellery, interior design products and other fun gifts to put under the Christmas tree.

Reportedly, this is where you find “all the unique alternative offbeat stuff, you don’t find anywhere else”.

Here, old workshop buildings from the railway era have been restored and transformed into a green space focusing on sustainability, art, culture and food.

15. Christmas Market on Værnedamsvej

We lived in Vesterbro for 8 years, right next to Værnedamsvej, which we think is one of Copenhagen’s cosiest streets.

The street connects Frederiksberg and Vesterbro, and every day you can find some wonderful restaurants, cafés and shops here.

For Christmas, the street (and the neighbouring street Tullinsgade) is transformed into a Christmas market on the first Saturday in December.

Local businesses set up shop on the pavement, and with the street closed to traffic during the market, the area becomes a delightful place for a little Christmas shopping.

There’s usually a good mix of new and used items, Christmas snacks, warm drinks and the chance to buy a few unique Christmas gifts in the beautifully decorated street.

We love that you can talk directly to the people who actually produced the food and hear how it was grown and made. Alongside the food, you’ll find various handmade items.
