The weekend of First Advent – let Christmas begin

The First Advent weekend, 27–29 November is the perfect time to enjoy Åre village together, and the local shops have plenty of surprises in store! Discover the latest arrivals, take advantage of special offers, and enjoy everything from morning runs with breakfast and yoga to ski tuning, movie screenings, and other in-store events.

Get a head start on your Christmas shopping, explore a store you've never visited before, or simply soak up the lively atmosphere around the village.

And there's even more Christmas cheer at Åre Torg, where hundreds of flickering outdoor torches light up the square and a little pop-up Christmas market with three festive stalls adds to the holiday magic.

Come for the Christmas spirit, stay for the village atmosphere, and head home feeling even more excited for winter!

Don't miss Åre's traditional village Christmas gathering at Åre Torg on Sunday, the first Advent, from 15.00 to 16.00.
