Experience Jul i Folkets Park

Jul i Folkets Park transforms one of Malmö's most beloved public spaces into a winter wonderland during the Christmas season. Located in the historic Folkets Park, this festive celebration offers a distinctly Swedish approach to holiday traditions, combining seasonal decorations, twinkling Christmas lights, and authentic Nordic charm. The centerpiece of the celebration is a popular ice skating rink where visitors can glide across the ice with rental skates or bring their own equipment. The park's seasonal transformation creates an enchanting atmosphere perfect for leisurely winter strolls through illuminated pathways. As part of Malmö's broader Winter in the City initiative, Jul i Folkets Park complements the main Christmas market at Gustav Adolfs Torg, offering a more relaxed, park-based experience. Visitors can enjoy traditional Swedish Christmas ambiance while exploring the beautifully decorated grounds. The skating rink provides entertainment for all ages and skill levels, making it an ideal destination for families and couples seeking a romantic winter activity. The festive decorations throughout the park capture the essence of Swedish Christmas traditions, creating memorable photo opportunities against the backdrop of historic Folkets Park. Plan to spend a few hours enjoying the skating rink and exploring the festively decorated park grounds for a complete Swedish Christmas experience.
