Herlev kicks off the Christmas season with a free family event in front of Herlev Church. Mayor Marco Damgaard lights the town's Christmas tree together with the children, and the afternoon also includes Christmas stories and festive activities in Hjulmandens Hus.
On the square outside Herlev Church, the programme includes a Christmas craft session with Herlev Billedskole and a short speech from the church's parish priest, Jens Kaltoft, before the tree is lit.
