Malmö Working Dog Club is organising a Christmas market with a dog theme on Hammars väg. Bring your dog along so you can try out special searching, agility and rally obedience together, and take a break with snacks and a raffle in the clubhouse.

In a long-standing tradition, this pedestrian street is lit up with Christmas decorations which then culminate in a market, in what is popularly known as Gustav - one of the city's busiest squares. Passers-by stop for a while to admire the decorations here and along Södertull and to enjoy seasonal hot food and drinks before they move on. The Christmas market on Gustav Adolfs Torg is cosy with a focus on authentic handicrafts, goodies and fine Christmas gifts.

The Christmas market in Limhamn just outside Malmö is an annual market with stall holders selling arts and crafts, Christmas decorations, food and drinks. The market in Limhamn square also has live music, dancing around the Christmas tree and a visit from the city's Lucia. 

The annual Mitt Möllan Christmas market in the heart of Malmö is full of local exhibitors and stores offering sustainable and often locally-produced items. If your hunger gets the best of you in the middle of your Christmas shopping, just head to the food court and pick something delicious to eat and drink.

A traditional Christmas market with stalls, crafts and children's activities - a proper Christmas market with an old-fashioned festive atmosphere in historic surroundings. Children can meet Father Christmas, dance around the Christmas tree, watch a magic show and do Christmas crafting. 

The shopping centre Kronprinsen invites you to a Christmas market over three days in December. There will be fresh-baked goods, warming mulled wine, and lights that twinkle in the winter darkness.

On 7th December, witches, wizards, sprites, and other supernatural beings gather in Holmgången in Malmö to engage in commerce during Yuletide – as they put it. Visitors are encouraged to come dressed as wizards or witches to contribute to the magical atmosphere, and to gain entry, visitors must collect a free ticket with an admission time at the gate towards Södra Förstadsgatan.

After a few twirls on the skating rink in Folkets Park, head to Far i Hatten to warm up and get a dose of Christmas spirit.

As usual, the restaurant serves pizzas baked in a wood-fired oven, and mulled wine and seasonal goodies are also on the menu.

The Christmas market at Rosengård on Örtagårdstorget aims to spread joy and create community in the area. Visitors can enjoy treats and warming drinks while supporting local associations by purchasing their products. For children, there will be crafts, face painting, gift giving with Santa, and horse and carriage rides.

Shop for Christmas gifts directly from the students at Östra Grevie Folkhögskola.

The Christmas market takes place in the indoor riding school at Folkets Park.

Malmö Saluhall transforms its cosy yard into a Christmas market with fine foods, gifts and decorations. Sample home-brewed apple mulled wine, listen to Advent music and meet local artisans selling ceramics, wreaths and interior design.
