Christmas Market Highlights Tomtenatta in Östersund City Center
On December 18th, Tomtenatta will transform Östersund’s city center with a brand new Christmas market and festive activities for all ages. Destination Östersund is inviting locals and visitors to an enchanting evening filled with holiday cheer.
Event Highlights
”This year’s novelty is the Christmas market, where many local actors and exhibitors will be present. It will complement the evening shopping, family activities like the Santa parade and meeting Santa. We want to offer something that suits both children and adults and gives an extra reason to visit the city center. Additionally, it’s a world premiere for the ring dance around the Christmas tree at Mårtens Torg. Our hope is to create a cozy evening where people take time to be out in town and meet each other,” says Bea Olsson, project manager at Destination Östersund.
