In Sweden, Midsummer is celebrated on the summer solstice—the longest day
of the year. The holiday is a time to enjoy the warm weather and celebrate the
beginning of summer. Midsummer traditions vary from region to region, but
many Swedes celebrate by decorating a maypole with flowers and leaves,
dancing around it, and singing traditional songs. Maypoles are often erected in
town squares or other public places for everyone to enjoy.
This is said to bring good luck and symbolize the summertime.
Midsummer feast typically includes pickled herring, new potatoes, boiled and
eggs. Strawberries are also a popular treat during this time of year.
