September: Scandinavia's Travel Secret

Traveling to Scandinavia in September is sort of an insider secret - not many think of this month when planning their yearly vacation. But remember that now the high season is over, which lowers travel prices immensely. Hotel and flight prices for Scandinavia are 65% cheaper on average than travel pricing in August!

Another advantage is fewer crowds and, of course, the still-mild weather in Scandinavia. Experienced travelers take this opportunity to visit their favorite annual events:

• Late Aug-Early Sep: Aarhus Festival, Denmark
• Sep 19-28: Malmö Rainbow Pride Festival, Sweden
• Sep 27-30: Göteborg Int'l Book Fair in Gothenburg, Sweden
• Late Sep: Kivik Apple Market Festival in Kivik, Sweden
• Sept/Oct: Reykjavik Jazz Festival, Iceland
• Octoberfest events in Scandinavia
