Winterland on North Funen
There’s something truly special about the winter darkness. From January 24th to February 7th, 2026, you can join in at 'Winterland' on North Funen, with unique experiences to our nature, churches, coastline, and towns.
Vinterland is part of "Vinterland 2026 – Funen and the Islands’ Cultural Festival in the Dark," taking place across the entire region. Here on North Funen, the program features everything from poetic evening walks and myths under the stars to light installations at Glavendrup, musical walks at Gyldensteen Strand, and a festive finale in Bogense with ice sculptures and fire shows.
Many events are free, while some require a ticket or a reservation – so be sure to check the details in the program before you head out.
