This is open on Christmas and New Year´s Eve!

Royal Djurgården is open year-round – including during Christmas and New Year. On both Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve, there is a wide range of activities to enjoy, and many museums, restaurants, and cafés remain open.

Enjoy atmospheric piano music in the Grand Hall at Nordiska museet, where both jazz and classical tones fill the space. Stop by Restaurant Stockholm 1897 for a classic lunch or a cozy fika. Dance around the Christmas tree at Skansen and continue the evening with even more dancing at ABBA The Museum. Or enjoy a quiet moment at Djurgården Church, with prayer, music, and beautiful songs.

Royal Djurgården Visitor Center is open, and our knowledgeable visitor hosts are on hand to help guide you. You’ll find us just to the right of the Djurgården Bridge landing.
