Copenhagen switches on Christmas lights and markets this weekend

Christmas starts early in Denmark.

Holiday markets and lights appear across central Copenhagen this weekend.

Visitors can enjoy free gløgg tastings in the city center.

Gløgg is traditional Danish mulled wine served during winter.

Book stalls offer titles starting at 10 Danish kroner.

Selected locations will display Japanese design goods.

The festive events begin one week after J-Day.

J-Day marks the annual release of seasonal Christmas beer in Denmark.

Local markets offer activities throughout November.

You can join celebrations early or wait until December.

The Copenhagen Post reported the weekend event schedule.
