Come and enjoy with us!  

Jólaþorpið í Hafnarfirði opnaði um miðjan nóvember þegar ljósin voru tendruð á Cuxhaven-jólatrénu á nýjum stað í jólabænum!  The Christmas village is bustling with life and fun in the run-up to Christmas, and the beautifully decorated Christmas houses of Hafnarfjörður have long been nationally renowned for a variety of exciting gifts, gourmet treats, handicrafts and design. It's the perfect place to find the ideal Christmas present whilst enjoying delicious food and drink to warm you from the inside out. Father Christmas visits at weekends, and Grýla will also be out and about in town on Sundays. Strandgata becomes a pedestrianised street while the Christmas Village is open.
