Winter holidays at Godsbanen

During the winter holidays, Godsbanen in Aarhus invites you to enjoy free family experiences with art, play and creativity. Discover a colourful exhibition, take part in fun activities and enjoy cosy winter holiday days for both children and adults.

Creative winter break with art, play and fun for the whole family

During the winter break, Godsbanen invites you to a free, creative and playful family programme in the heart of Aarhus. The programme is based on the thought-provoking exhibition Your Cards Are Bleeding by artist Kåre Frang, which fills Rå Hal with colourful sculptures, moving boxes and a secret room with film works that explore what it means to move in life – both physically and mentally. The exhibition can be experienced until 8 March 2026.

The exhibition's universe for children and adults

Your Cards Are Bleeding is more than an exhibition – it is a space for reflection and experience for all ages. Large, colourful figures made from old toys and a dark, secret room create a sensory narrative about change, movement and awareness in a world in constant flux.

Fun winter holiday activities

During the winter holiday week, Godsbanen offers a range of activities that make the visit extra exciting for children and adults alike:

  • Treasure hunt: Explore the building with a treasure hunt and audio walk – pick up a task sheet at the ticket office in the foyer and find hidden clues, stories and surprises.
  • Competition in the exhibition: Gather the whole family for tasks in Your Cards Are Bleeding and take part in the draw for a brunch for the whole family in Restaurant GODS.
  • Shrove Sunday on 15 February: Hit the cat off the barrel in the foyer – a fun Shrove Sunday party for children.

In addition, you can enjoy creative play, treasure hunts and fun throughout the house – and perhaps combine your visit with a delicious brunch or dinner at Restaurant GODS.
