Christmas in the Lace Town is an annual event that brings joy, memorable experiences, and a warm festive atmosphere to Rauma. During the Christmas season, the city is filled with lights, decorations, and charming details that invite visitors to slow down, relax, and enjoy quality time together.

The UNESCO World Heritage Site, Old Rauma, lies at the heart of the event, where historic wooden houses and the magic of Christmas create a truly unique setting. The diverse Christmas program offers something to experience for visitors of all ages.

Events organized by the city of Rauma are free of charge, while the overall program is enriched by numerous local businesses, associations, and other community partners hosting their own events and activities. Christmas in the Lace Town is strongly shaped by local entrepreneurship, community spirit, and collaboration.

We warmly welcome everyone to experience Christmas in their own way. All of our events follow the principles of a safer and more inclusive space.
