Hiiumaa's Glögi Café Day

Hiiumaa comes to life in winter when the island fills with the scents of glögi (mulled wine), candlelight, and Christmas spirit – that's when Hiiumaa's Glögi Café Day takes place, inviting everyone to travel around the island, tasting along the way.

Cozy glögi cafés open their doors, and guests are welcomed with steaming cups of mulled wine, hot chocolate, cinnamon pastries, Christmas cake, gingerbread, and savory winter dishes.

Each café has its own character – some offer a homely Christmas atmosphere, others a refined café vibe, while others blend the scent of bonfire smoke and gingerbread with the winter air.

Among the organizers are experienced caterers and hobby cooks whose dishes usually reach only the tables of friends and family. Their shared desire is to create a warm and friendly Christmas experience for Hiiumaa's visitors.

This is a day when all of Hiiumaa is filled with smiles, the scent of gingerbread, and shared warmth. Come and enjoy Hiiumaa in the winter, step into a glögi café, and let yourself be enchanted by the Christmas feeling created by the island's people and their special foods.
