Flower crowns, dancing frogs and a sun that never sets! This is Midsummer in Sweden – tomorrow’s the day! 🇸🇪
In Leksand, Dalarna, around 30,000 people gather each year to raise a 26-metre maypole at the heart of the celebration. Would you join the dance? 💃
Rooted in ancient traditions, Midsummer marks the summer solstice – the longest day of the year. In Sweden, the celebration always falls on a Friday between 19 and 25 June.
