Opening times: The museum’s cafe is open daily from 13:00 -17:00 and the Christmas program is happening every Sunday from 11 to 18th of December.

This is one of my favourite markets as it's just next to where I grew up and I always went here as a kid. f you're not Icelandic, this market offers a unique opportunity to experience an authentic Icelandic Christmas. It stands out by providing more chances for active participation in the creation and practice of Christmas traditions. Whether it's knitting, crafting decorations, baking leaf bread, or even learning to make candles, you'll find yourself immersed in a setting reminiscent of a scene from a Christmas movie.
