Every year The Christmas parade, followed by extended opening hours in the stores, will take place in Aarhus. The Christmas parade is a sure sign that Christmas has come to town, and the streets are invariably abuzz with people.
The Christmas parade sets off from the harbour at DOKK1 and will make the way down towards the pedestrianised high street 'Strøget' were Santa Claus will light the starry sky above the street. It is a beloved tradition that marks the return of Christmas year by year.
