The Norsk Folkemuseum’s Christmas Fair in Oslo is a popular winter market that showcases Norwegian Christmas traditions. Located on the museum grounds, it features traditional holiday customs, crafts, and local culture.
The market has stalls selling handmade items, holiday decorations, and Norwegian gifts. Local artisans and vendors offer knitwear, woodwork, pottery, and Christmas ornaments. It’s a good spot to find authentic gifts.
Food is a big part of the Christmas Fair in Oslo. You can get gingerbread cookies, lefse (soft flatbreads), sausages, Norwegian waffles, and gløgg (mulled wine). There’s also live pre-Christmas concerts, Christmas comedy series, re-enactors and traditional craft demonstrations.
