Time travel back to a tradition of the past

Christmas with the workers in ornate surroundings

Dec 4, 2014

For almost 100 years, the workers’ children celebrated Christmas in the banquet hall at the Workers’ Museum and now they’re reviving the tradition – well kind of.
This is your chance to enjoy the tradition by joining other children and families at a big-old knees-up.

Traditional games led by Santa with his wife in tow should make this Sunday afternoon a memorable one.

And in between courses, don’t forget to gaze up at the ornate ceiling and imagine you’ve stepped back in time.

Christmas party at arbejedermuseet: Dec 7, 14:00-15:30; Copenhagen Workers’ Museum, Rømersgade 22, Cph K; 65kr, under-18s free adm; arbejdermuseet.dk
