Christmas at Gavnø – Denmark’s Largest Christmas Market
On 6–8 and 13–15 November 2026, the scent of mulled wine and roasted almonds fills the air at Gavnø. Hunt for Christmas gifts among the stalls and soak up the festive atmosphere in the historic manor buildings.

Christmas cheer in Gavnø’s historic surroundings
The experience begins as soon as you cross the small stone bridge to Gavnø, with the castle as a backdrop. In the rustic buildings of the manor estate, you can explore the Christmas stalls, find gifts and take a break with something warm to drink.
Bring your partner, family or friends along for a day when Christmas preparations can take a little extra time.
What can you find at Christmas at Gavnø?
