Start the new year with a bit of self-care 🧘‍♀️🌿💅⁠

What better way to kick off January with a healthy dose of wellness. Copenhagen's got plenty to offer when you want to treat your body, mind and soul with some relaxing treatments 💆‍♀️⁠

One way to do it could be a dip in the pool at Guldsmeden Hotels Manon les Suites 🫧🛁⁠

What are your go-to wellness experiences in Copenhagen? We want to hear them in the comments 👇⁠

Ahh.. Can you feel it? ⁠
It's the smell of 2025 😌⁠

If you're looking to start fresh in the New Year (or have some 2024-hangovers), we have a few suggestions for how to start 2025 in style 😎⁠

💦 Take a cold plunge in the harbour and reset your body. We promise you will feel energised afterwards!⁠

🍔 Treat yourself to a delicious, salty meal. Because you probably need it 😉

🚶 A stroll and fresh air are good ways to start the new year. It's one of the perks of having a walkable city!⁠

How do you plan to start 2025? 🌅⁠

Dive into the rich history of Danish design ✍🪑⁠

Danish design is known and loved far and wide. If you're curious about what led to its success, which designs are central, and unfold the major Danish designers of the 20th century, you should check out DANISH MODERN at Designmuseum Danmark 💡⁠

The exhibition tells the story of Danish design from the 1920s until the year 2000, and it's sprinkled with some of the most iconic Danish design objects ✨⁠

It's also a permanent exhibition, so you can't miss it no matter when you visit Copenhagen 🗓⁠

From all of us, to all of you.. Glædelig jul 💫⁠

Ever wondered about the Danish Christmas experience? ⁠

🎀 In the heart of Denmark, December 24 marks the celebration of Christmas, featuring a grand dinner and the ritual of late-night present unwrapping.⁠

🎀 Families dance around the Christmas tree in a hand-in-hand circle and sings carols and psalms.⁠

🎀 The selection and decoration of a spruce tree is a cherished Scandinavian experience, and the Christmas ornaments are usually family heirlooms.⁠

🎀 Presents are brought for children by Julemanden and he arrives on December 24 to distribute them. No magic chimneys or middle-of-the-night magic required: typically it's the one in the family with the most impressive beard.⁠

🎀 Christmas dinner takes center stage as a regal affair, featuring roast pork, duck, boiled potatoes, red cabbage, and gravy. The pièce de résistance lies in Risalamande.⁠

Have you ever experienced a traditional, Danish Christmas Eve?⁠

We hope that you spend this magical night with your loved ones and that your Christmas wishes come true 🌟⁠

A match made in Christmas heaven? 🎅👼

Gløgg and æbleskiver is a must-try combination this Christmas if you're in Copenhagen.

If you don't know what we're talking about, æbleskiver are puffy pancake-like balls usually served with powdered sugar and jam.
Gløgg is very similar to mulled wine, just a tad sweeter with raisins and almond flakes added🍷🧇

You can find this Christmas combo in most places, but let us know in the comments where you got the best æbleskiver and gløgg! 👇

Here is your -winner, Yi-Jen 🍪🤎⁠

The jury had a hard time picking a winner since we were blessed with an incredible amount of creative cookie tins, ranging from instruments, bird feeders, and zen gardens to sewing kits, fossilised shark teeth and cat whiskers 🤯⁠

But we were blown away by Yi-Jen's butter cookie tin, which contained 25 handmade travel memories arranged like an advent calendar (just in time for Christmas) inspired by her latest trip to Copenhagen 🇩🇰🦢🚲⁠

We asked Yi-Jen to say a few words about participating in the competition: ⁠

“Participating in the contest allowed me to share my passion for creativity and handmade designs inspired by my travel memories. ⁠
I’m excited to visit Copenhagen in March and draw inspiration from the city’s architecture, design, and amazing food!”⁠

As icing on the cake, Yi-Jen decided to create a small cookie tin containing some small -cookies as a way of celebrating her victory 🍪🤎⁠

We want to thank all of you who played along and shared your butter cookie tins with us 🫶⁠

Lucia in kayaks? That’s so Danish 🇩🇰🛶

The must-experience Christmas event of the year is happening today!

December 13th is the celebration of Santa Lucia Day in schools, churches, and homes across Denmark. Adopted in 1944 from Sweden, this tradition typically features a candlelit procession accompanied by a beautiful choir 👩‍👩‍👧‍👦👨‍👨‍👧‍👦

But in Copenhagen, you can experience a rather unusual parade…

A magical Santa Lucia kayak parade hosted by Kayak Republic and Kayak Bar. Back in 2006, it started small, with a few torches and some kayaks. But guess what? Now, it’s enormous!

In 2024, hundreds of kayaks decorated with Christmas lights will pass through Nyhavn, Christianshavn, BLOX and Højbro Plads singing Christmas carols! 🚣🎄

If you want to participate, here is the schedule:

🛶 15.00: Gløgg and æbleskiver at Kayak Bar

🛶 17.00: Departure from Kayak Bar

🛶 17.15: Nyhavn

🛶 17.45: Christianshavn

🛶 18.15: BLOX

🛶 18.30: Højbro Plads & Gl. Strand

🛶 18.45: Last stop of the evening at Kayak Bar & Kayak Republic

🎄Tips:
• Arrive 30 minutes early for a good view!
• The Christianshavn location is typically less crowded than Nyhavn.

Your new favourite dessert 🍒🍚😋

You can't have Christmas in Copenhagen without tasting the traditional Risalamande, a Danish Christmas dessert consisting of a sweetened rice pudding with almonds, that you pour cherry sauce over, which dates back to the late 19th century. ⁠

Everyone knows that one's mother makes the best Risalamande, but luckily you can also find some delicious alternatives in the city. Here are a few ways to experience Risalamande during your visit:

🍒 Classic lunch restaurants like Restaurant Schønnemann always have a no-nonsense Risalamande that taste like heaven 👼⁠

🍒 GRØD has both Risalamande and classic rice pudding on the menu and it's vegan-friendly 🌱

🍒 How would a Risalamande ice cream taste like? Ismageriet has the answer with Isalamande 🍦

🍒 If you want to enjoy your Risalamande on the fly, make sure to stop by Andersen & Maillard and taste their signature Risalamande 🥨

🍒 The signature taste of Risalamande actually translates quite well to beer. This year Væskebalancen Bar & Bottleshop - Blågårdsgade has a liquid risalamande-beer for you to try 🍺

Where would you go to grab a risalamande in Copenhagen? 🍒🤤
