The Scandinavian Christmas Fair in Raleigh, NC, is an annual celebration of the rich traditions of the Nordic countries -- Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland and Iceland.

Join us December 7 for an unforgettable Christmas experience featuring homemade Scandinavian food, live music, authentic folk dancing, children’s activities, Nordic crafts and imported items, a presentation of national costumes from the Nordic countries and, of course, a stunning traditional Lucia Procession!

Also, the acclaimed “Vasa Drängar” Swedish Men’s Choir of Atlanta will perform a program of Scandinavian Christmas songs.

This year marks the 17th anniversary of the Scandinavian Christmas Fair. Held annually on the first Saturday in December, the fair has become a family holiday tradition for people from Scandinavia and of Scandinavian descent as well as many Americans that want to experience the magic of Christmas in the Nordic countries.
