Christmas may be over, but there are still plenty activities across the Grand Duchy to keep families busy.
In Luxembourg City, the Winterkids Village at Place Guillaume II will continue to offer a warm, creative setting for children and parents during the holidays into the new year. The programme brings together a wide range of activities, including cooking, handicraft and gift-making workshops, alongside puppet shows, singing and live music.
Families can drop in and take part without prior reservation, signing up on site shortly before each activity, subject to availability. More details here.
The Christmas edition of Cirque du Lux combines high-level acrobatics with classic circus spectacles. International performers known from major circus festivals are joined by jugglers, clowns, tightrope walkers and aerial artists, in a visually driven show designed to appeal across generations. With no animals, no language barriers, and a strong focus on atmosphere, it offers a shared end-of-year outing for families. Performances take place on Monday 29 December, with afternoon and early evening shows. More details here.
Designed for young audiences, the session invites participants to create their own mosaic using an unexpected material: beans. By playing with colours, shapes and textures, children can experiment freely and produce a small artwork of their own. The multilingual workshop is suitable for children aged three and up and is offered in two time slots per date. Sessions take place at the museum’s Ville-Haute site. More details here.

Ring in 2026 at a gentler pace with a New Year’s Brunch at Mama Shelter Luxembourg, where the focus is firmly on indulgence.

One glass of crémant or a mocktail is included, setting the tone for a relaxed start to the year. While adults settle in, children can enjoy a supervised activity area on site, allowing families to ease into New Year’s Day without rushing. More details here.
