A Fabulous Christmas – Royal Copenhagen Christmas Tables 2026

Bringing together hundreds of thousands of visitors each year, and hosted in one of city’s oldest buildings, festive celebrations across the Danish capital wouldn’t be the same without the Royal Copenhagen Christmas Tables exhibition.

A highly anticipated and recurring event since 1963, over the decades the historic porcelain house has invited a vast array of cultural figures and leading celebrities to create truly one-of-a-kind tablescapes at its Flagship Store on Amagertorv.

With 2026 as no exception, this year’s contributors are acclaimed Danish actresses Ellen Hillingsø and Iben Hjejle, bestselling author and TV personality Caroline Fleming, distinctive singer-songwriter Tessa, and transgender model and advocate May Lund Lifschitz.

All working under the theme of ‘A Fabulous Christmas,’ each of the five women personally demonstrate in their own way, that the yuletide holidays do not have to follow a set pattern, but can be as individual as the people who celebrate them.

“It has been a tremendous privilege to be allowed a glimpse behind the facade of these incredibly resilient women — women who have placed their trust in me and dared to share their Christmas memories, both the good and the bad,” says interior stylist Cille Grut, who serves as curator and production manager for the exhibition.

Thought-provoking, poetic, flamboyant, and inspiring these beautiful Christmas installations honour both the season’s joys and its challenges, while also showcasing brilliantly the full breadth of Royal Copenhagen’s timeless collections. And I for one cannot wait to see them for myself.

A Fabulous Christmas, the Royal Copenhagen Christmas Tables exhibition can be experienced on the 2nd floor of Royal Copenhagen’s Flagship Store, Amagertorv 6 in Copenhagen, from November 6 to December 31, 2026.
