Xmas atmosphere

December offers lots of danish ´Hygge´.  Take a walk in Esbjerg City, drop by the Xmas huts, visit Peters Jul in Ribe, try ice-skating at Esbjerg Main Square or take a walk in the deer park - and if snow comes, drop by ´gryden´ in vognsbølparken with your sleigh. Newcomers are also welcome to join us @the Living Room on Dec 2nd with Danish Xmas Hygge plus drinks from all over the world.

 

We will ask for Corona Pass at all newcomer events.

Corona Pass

The Corona pass is back in Denmark for everyone age 15 and up. A valid Corona Pass is required for example at cafés and restaurants, at some sports and cultural venues, at cultural events and gatherings depending on numbers of participants, amusement parks, hospitals etc. 

Your will find your Corona pass either in the App: Coronapas or by printing the pass from sundhed.dk. Your Corona pass will be valid if you are fully vaccinated, if you had a negative test taken within the past 72 hours (96 hours for PCR test) or have had corona within the past 6 months.
