Before you go
How to actually get in for free
- This is a new market in 2026 with stalls and food from Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands; children can hear a Christmas story told by 'talking trees'.
- Nyhavn's Christmas lights and the Strøget shopping street are a few minutes' walk away, so it fits easily into a city-centre walk.
- Sunday opening is an hour later (12:00) than on weekdays.
