About

Gelsted Marked in august every year in Fyn (Funen) takes place at Søndergade 80, 5591 Gelsted, Denmark. The market is a recurring fixture on the island, held each August, with Odense, Middelfart, Assens, Nyborg, Svendborg, Faaborg, Kerteminde and Ærøskøbing among the nearby places.

It is known for the crowds that gather for its stalls and for the annual timing that gives it its name. First-time visitors should expect a seasonal event rather than a permanent venue, with the programme concentrated into the August dates. A 4.4 out of 5 average from 102 reviews reflects how it is received.

The market's own site, gelsted-bf.dk, carries the details for the year. Scandinavian islands have cool summers and cold, dark winters, with coastal waters warmed by the Gulf Stream.

White-tailed eagles, puffins, guillemots and otters live around Scandinavian islands and coastal waters. Southern islands such as Fyn do not see the midnight sun or polar night that the northern reaches witness. Stockfish and clipfish, dried and salted cod, are produced in the Lofoten Islands and exported south, a trade that has long connected these northern waters with markets further down the coast. Visitors planning around the August dates should pack for changeable weather, since summers here stay mild rather than hot.
