Christmas Shopping in Aarhus

Aarhus guarantees a wonderful, atmospheric Christmas shopping trip, where both the city centre and the city's many neighbourhoods are decorated with lights and Christmas decorations, and everywhere you go, you are greeted by the scent of warm mulled wine, cocoa, roasted almonds and many other delicacies.

Go in search of that very special Christmas gift in the historic streets of the Latin Quarter or Frederiksbjerg, where you will also find a string of small shops selling exclusive clothing, unique brands, handicrafts, design and jewellery.

Explore the latest trends in the sparkling department stores Salling, Magasin and Bruuns Galleri and enjoy a stroll up the high street under the bright starry sky, where you are sure to find your favourite brands.

Tip: Don't forget to visit Salling Christmas Garden at the top of Salling. Here you can enjoy some delicious treats and experience a Christmas exhibition that is out of the ordinary.

If you are looking for quirky and unique shops where you can find that special Christmas gift, Aarhus has countless options in virtually every genre. Take a look at Georg Jensen, for example, where you will find quality craftsmanship and timeless aesthetic design.

At 1+1 Textil og Design, you can find some of the best in Danish arts and crafts and design, and if you are looking for unique jewellery, treat yourself to a visit to jewellery designer Karen Norup Smykker or Hornvarefabrikken, which produces jewellery, spoons, knives and forks made from cow horn.

And then, of course, we also have the well-known Søstrene Grene, which is a whole Christmas universe in itself – and many more.

In Aarhus, you can also find a wide selection of second-hand shops, both in the city centre around the Latin Quarter on Frederiksbjerg and in the unique children's universe Børneloppen in western Aarhus.
