Oslo has several big and small markets and events all over the city the most famous being the festive and fun Christmas Market at City Hall Square.

The Christmas Fair is open the first two weekends in December, with many of the old buildings in the open-air museum decorated for Christmas according to the old Norwegian traditions. More than 100 sale stands throughout the museum grounds sell unique items such as handmade arts and crafts, decorations and ornaments, traditional foods and other holiday treats.
