Cozy with Christmas in Stockholm
This year we hope that the Christmas celebration will be different than last year! We look forward to Christmas. This year, the aim is to have a Christmas market at Skansen. Considering covid-19, Christmas will still not be as usual, but we will see some light in the tunnel. We can hope that we get to see some skating and lots of other things. We updated gradually with the pandemic in mind.
Below you will find a selection of Christmas coziness in Stockholm. All dates for 2021 are updated gradually.

Differnt places | we'll see if there will be any lucia in the year 2021
Sweden's Lucia is a nice Swedish tradition. The Lucia celebration that we are used to today with Lucia train with bridesmaids, star boys, song and lollipops comes from the early 20th century. In the dark of December, Lucia comes and lights up the darkness.
Old Town | Dec 1 - 24, 2021
A nice tradition in the Old Town where from 1 to 24 December you open a door every day at 18.15. (On Christmas Eve, the 24th door opens at 11.30). To know where to open today's door, a banner is hung in a window that says "here the door opens". A fun way to discover the Old Town. The hatch openings begin with a fanfare and then a piece of music and a poem or story are performed. This year, of course, with adjustments to the current situation.
