Christmas town Tønder

As in previous years, Tønder will once again surprise, seduce, delight young and old, smell of Christmas, and once again show that Tønder is Denmark's leading Christmas town. 

Opens with the bang of a Santa Claus procession 

On Saturday 9 November, the Christmas Town in Tønder opens. It happens with a bang from a Santa procession that leaves from Kvickly Tønder on Plantagevej at 13.00 and up through the pedestrian street to Torvet. With the Esbjerg Post Orchestra in the lead and a lot of Santa Clauses, Santa Clauses and elves, it will once again be a terrific procession. 

The procession goes to the Square. Christmas officially opens here at 2 p.m. 

Flying Santa Claus - unique in all of Denmark - with snow guarantee
