On Sunday 24 November, a very successful Danish Christmas Bazaar took place in Bangkok. The organisers, Danish Women’s Network and the Danish Church in Thailand, estimate that about 1,000 to 1,200 guests paid the bazaar a visit.

One of the guests was Santa Claus herself to much amusement for the attending children.

Uffe Wolffhechel, Danish Ambassador to Thailand declared the bazaar officially open at 11.15 am, – and then the fun began..

There was a traditional Danish Lucia Parade twice and children could play, get creative and watch films all day in the children’s corner.

Guests could indulge in delicious Danish food, cold beer and sweets before being tempted by beautiful crafts and designs.

Attendees could also purchase raffle tickets for the chance to win luxury prizes and Santa’s chair was even up for grabs for one fortunate winner of the lucky draw.

See photos from the bazaar below.
