Welcome to SWEA San Francisco’s

40th Christmas Fair

Saturday, December 2, 2023

From 9am to 3pm

Saint Mary’s Cathedral, San Francisco

LUCIA PERFORMANCES 10am and 1pm

As in previous years, the Lucia procession will be performed upstairs in St. Mary’s Cathedral.  There will be two performances, 10am and 1pm.

It’s the perfect setting for this most traditional and musical experience.  The holiday season and festivities begin with Santa Lucia!

FOOD AND DRINK

Enjoy the smell of glögg and gingerbread cookies and the taste of shrimp sandwiches, waffles with jam and cream, or a hot dog with bun.

There will be many food items available for purchase: lucia buns, pearl sugar, pickled herring, anchovis, and so much more.

SWEDISH GIFT ITEMS

Take the opportunity to stock up on gifts.

You will find traditional and modern handmade crafts, books, clothes, jewelry and decor.

You might even find a treasure at our White Reindeer table!

FUN FOR ALL AGES

We have lots of fun events for the children:

the classic fish pond, Christmas crafts,
dance around the Christmas tree, and
of course, Santa will be there.

GOD JUL OCH VÄLKOMNA!
