Happens during the city walk

Join us on an unforgettable walk through Stockholm's Old Town and experience the magic of Christmas on cobblestones and in worn alleyways. You walk under the light of the lanterns and hear fairy tales and stories about the city's history and Christmas traditions.

Did the Vikings celebrate Christmas? Why do we have nativity scenes and celebrate Lucia which are actually Catholic traditions?

On this walk you will get answers to these and many other questions about Christmas traditions from the past. But it's not just the history that makes this hike special. When it's darkest, it's coziest, and during the walk you can clearly see beautifully painted ceilings, tiled stoves and roof beams. You will also hear about Christmas traditions around the world and how other cultures celebrate Christmas.

Our countdown to Christmas runs throughout December, and on this hike you will experience a unique Christmas atmosphere that you won't soon forget. For many families, Christmas lunch is eaten before "Donald's Christmas", and then Santa arrives with the presents.

But there was a time when the farming community celebrated Christmas Eve as the most solemn time of the year. You will hear stories about the Christmas table, the Christmas tree and the tradition of hanging up a stocking on Christmas Eve morning.

So why not experience a unique Christmas walk through the Old Town this year and create memories that will last forever? Book your ticket now and prepare to experience an unforgettable Christmas atmosphere like you've never experienced before!
