Malmö. It starts here. Malmö is more than a city. Malmö is encounters, food, and laughter. Malmö brims with people creating experiences for everyone to enjoy – theatre, art and music. Malmö is the place where you’ll meet a promising young designer, a chef whose restaurant is boasting its first Michelin star, a director pushing boundaries, a band recording its first album. Ideas and momentum flow in Malmö. You feel it in our art, our music, our food. You feel it in our diversity and people. It is said that our city has more restaurants per citizen than anywhere else in Sweden. Perhaps that’s because half the population is younger than 30 years old. Young restaurant and bistro owners around Möllevångstorget and Davidshallstorg squares experiment with influences from France, Italy, Japan, Lebanon, Iran and many other nations. Cosy cafés and bars are dotted all over. When the Michelin Guide visited Malmö for the first time 2015, it awarded three restaurants a Michelin star. At the other end, Malmö has excellent fast food to suit every budget and is also known as Sweden’s falafel capital. Expect the unexpected from Malmö’s cultural life. The new concert hall at Malmö Live hosts everything from children’s musicals to world names in rock, classical music and jazz. The summertime Sommarscen Malmö outdoor festival surprises and entertains. The Malmö Festival is a food and music extravaganza. Malmö Opera presents ballet and classical opera with unique scenography and artistic expression. Around the city you will find more than 300 works of art on public display and numerous examples of architectural innovation. Visit private galleries or enjoy contemporary art at Malmö Konsthall, Malmö Art Museum, Moderna Museet Malmö and Form Design Center. Everything is within easy reach in Sweden’s most cosmopolitan city. Beyond that, Copenhagen is just half an hour away across the Öresund Bridge Today Malmö is a city where you can be certain to experience something new. Welcome to Malmö. It starts here!

Christmas in Malmö MALMÖ STAD

All of Malmö sparkles and shimmers in the Christmas time. From the last weekend of November and all the way to Christmas Eve. With special Christmas markets, carol concerts, atmospheric street lighting and traditional Swedish Saint Lucia celebrations. Getting into the spirit of Christmas is easy in Malmö.

ACTIVITY

In Sweden, Christmas is mainly celebrated on the 24th of December, when families gather in richly decorated homes to feast on Swedish Christmas treats such as mustard glazed ham, pickled herring, meatballs, schnapps and creamy rice porridge. The highlight of the evening is the traditional dance around the Christmas tree, followed by a visit by Santa Claus himself. Usually a neighbor or male relative in disguise,

he traditionally arrives after the dancing is done to deliver the Christmas presents to expectant children. In Malmö the Christmas preparations last throughout December. On the 13th the official Saint Lucia of Malmö is crowned, and then leads a beautiful procession of singing, white-clad followers through the streets. During the Advent weekends, cozy Christmas markets take place, full of locally produced food, handicraft products, Christmas

sweets, music and dancing. Both the Christmas market at Malmöhus Castle and the one at Katrinetorp, a picturesque 19th century farmhouse on the outskirts of Malmö, are well worth a visit!
