Christmas Markets (Julmarknad) or Advent markets in Sweden are popular with locals and tourists alike and highlight many Swedish Christmas traditions, for example the consumption of glögg which is a hot spicy wine.

The Liseburg Christmas Market which takes place in Gothenburg is reputed to be the largest in Sweden with over 60 stalls and an open air ice rink nearby.
Outdoor stalls sell Swedish Christmas sweets, smoked sausages, reindeer meat, glögg (mulled wine), and a wide range of Swedish handicrafts and other gifts.
At least four Xmas Markets take place within the city area of Stockholm, namely Skansen, on the park island of Djurgården, where the Christmas markets date back to 1903, Gamla Stan, commonly known as  the Old Town just south of the Royal Palace, in Rosendal Palace which is a little way from the centre of Djurgården and Kungstradgården, a large urban park near the tourist and shopping area.
About half an hour’s travel from Stockholm is Sigtuna, the oldest recorded town in Sweden which hosts two Christmas Markets in the Julmarknad and the indoor Xmas Market at the Steninge Slott.
