Tips & Advice
- Walk the full length of Strøget, from Østergade to Frederiksberggade, to see a long stretch of the Christmas decorations.
- Plan your shopping around the lights, because Indre By shops keep longer guide hours in December and stay open into the evening.
- Shops in Indre By are closed on 24, 25 and 26 December, so pick an earlier day if you want shopping with the lights.
- See the lights before they come down, because they're due to stay on only through 26 December, subject to change.
Special Events & Promotions
- Official lighting day in mid-November, with the exact date announced through the press.
