The annual Crafts & Design Christmas market and the Christmas tree sale in Heiðmörk woods, located on the outskirts of Reykjavík, will be open every weekend until Christmas, from 11:00 to 16.00. The Christmas trees are beautiful and Icelandicgrown but even if you’re not there to get a tree, there’s plenty of activities. You can take a stroll around the arts and crafts market and the kids can watch the campfire and meet the Icelandic Yule lads. If it gets cold, you can always head to the café for a cup of coffee or even hot chocolate!
Reykjavík city hall is not passing up the chance to join in the Christmas festivities so the winter woods is open every weekend. Children can play in the Christmas hut and there will be plenty of Christmas events to entertain the guests. Every Sunday at 14, Norwegian family film Jul I Flåklypa will play (in Icelandic) and every child will enjoy seeing the City’s Christmas Creatures in the Winter woods.
