Plan the winter weekend

Four things to consider

No matter where you live, there are some simple choices that make it easier to make the weekend work.

1

How many nights?

Several partners offer both short and longer stays. Choose according to how much of the festival you want to take part in.

2

City or nature?

Will you be able to go out in Skagen city, or would you rather live close to the festival area and Grenen?

3

Hotel or own base?

Hotels and hostels make it easy. Holiday homes provide more space and the opportunity to control meals and pace on your own.
