Christmas in Luxembourg

Oh boy, oh boy, is that time of the year again, when Christmas comes to Luxembourg city!

For those who haven’t lived here for long, let me tell you: besides spring, summer and autumn, winter is the best place to be in Luxembourg. No, not much snow here in the Grand Duchy, but usually from 23 November until 23 December, the city turns on the holiday lights and the Christmas markets open for a whole month of feasts and celebration. There will be 4 (yes, four!) Christmas markets in the City Centre, beautiful festive lights all around, an Ice Ring in Place Guillaume II, lots of tasty street food and, hopefully, only good vibes.

If you haven’t seen them before, you can check out photos from last year’s Winter Lights festival here and the Christmas Markets here (that’s a slideshow gallery).

There will also be a fun Saint Nicholas procession on the 3rd of December on Boulevard Franklin D Roosevelt, you shouldn’t miss that either.

With these, I declare the festivities open. Party!
