Tips & Advice

  • Come on opening day, Friday, November 20, to see the big Christmas tree on Torvet lit and the skating rink open for the season.
  • Use the free municipal car parks around Esbjerg City so you can shop, skate and visit Julehyttebyen without paying for parking.
  • Combine Julehyttebyen with some Christmas shopping, since around 200 specialty shops, cafés, restaurants and department stores are close by in the city centre.
  • Some city-centre shops keep their own opening hours, so confirm the times with any store you plan to visit for a particular purchase.
  • Dress warmly if you plan to skate, because the rink is set up out on the town square at Torvet.
