ADVENT | LUCIA

ADVENT

Advent typically represents the four Sundays preceding Christmas in the Christian faith. In every form, it's a countdown to Christmas and begins a season of preparation and anticipation of holiday celebrations. Much of advent revolves around light. Advent candles are a popular way in Scandinavia to celebrate advent and many people use sets of four candles, one for each week. Read about Scandinavian Christmas traditions on our Advent blog.

SANKTA LUCIA

On December 13th, one of the most traditional Scandinavian festivities is celebrated all over Sweden, Norway and in the Swedish-speaking parts of Finland. It is Lucia’s Day, the festival of light, and symbolically brings hope and light during the darkest months of the year.
