Christmas at the Øresund Aquarium
It's Christmas again, and we've got lots of fun planned for the whole of December. Feel the Christmas spirit at the aquarium, help feed the fish and find the Øresund elves in the aquariums.
Meet the Øresund elves throughout December
The Øresund elves visit the Øresund Aquarium during Christmas. Can you find the mischievous sea elves?
The elves spend their Christmas holidays brushing the sea cat's teeth, keeping the herring beautiful and shiny, and generally making sure that the aquarium's fish and animals are in top shape for Christmas Eve.
Øresund elves are sea elves, i.e. elves that live in the sea all over the world. The sea elves in Øresund were born and raised in Øresund. That is why they are commonly referred to as the Øresund elves. They prefer not to leave the sound, as they help the fish and animals with many things. But at Christmas, you can meet them at the Øresund Aquarium. See if you can find the elves and their elf house at the aquarium.
Feeding the fish in the aquarium
Every hour, you can watch the fish being fed in selected aquariums. Here, the aquarium's guides will tell fun stories and exciting facts about the animals. The first feeding starts at 11 a.m. at our three-step touch pool, where you can help feed the fish yourself.
The activity takes place at 12:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m.
There are limited places, so remember to sign up on the registration list at the ticket office if you want to join.
