The Danish calendar is filled with national holidays and other days with strong traditions attached to them.
Many Danish traditions are based on the Christian calendar, with Christmas, Easter and Sankt Hans Aften among the most traditional celebrations. These days are typically spent with family and friends, while other occasions, such as Constitution Day and the festive Danish carnival Fastelavn, also receive great attention from Danes.
