Various events are held all year round in Glücksburg and the surrounding areas: Whether it’s the marathon, the beach festival or the Christmas market – there is always something going on here!
For many years, the OstseeMan in Glücksburg has provided the unmistakable Flensburg Förde feeling. Every year in August, hundreds of triathletes travel to the Sea to face ONE fantastic experience above all: swimming in the open sea - the absolute supreme discipline for the participants. The mass start in the Flensburg Fjord in Glücksburg is a unique experience for the athletes and spectators with a goosebump atmosphere - unique in Germany.

To properly ring in the new year, around 50 to 100 courageous souls head to Sandwig beach – and bravely dare to take a short dip in the chilly fjord!
Mulled wine and bratwurst are served at the event – just the right thing to shake off any lingering hangover!
Starts at 2:00 pm
Christmas is a magical time for both young and old, especially when it is as enchanting as it in Glücksburg. On all four Advent weekends, the Glücksburg Castle invites you to a very special Christmas experience.
The castle is festively decorated and transformed into a fairy-tale atmosphere. The Christmas market spans the entire castle courtyard – and features a beautifully crafted gingerbread house and a singing Christmas tree: two absolute highlights! Traditional and new Christmas decorations, regional handicrafts as well as local specialties and delicacies from all over the world are on offer. The market is also accompanied by a varied programme of events, activities and entertainment.
Every Advent weekend, 10:00 am to 8:00 pm
