Ah right, I once saw a Swedish movie with that title (Midsummer) but the festival was very pagan and scary, I am hoping real Midsummer festival is not like that 😱

2025-05-07 14:34:22 +0000 UTCI forgot to tell you about the Swedish holidays here. Which is Christmas but we mostly celebrate it on Christmas Eve. We also have the May bonfire where we light a fire at the start of May. Midsummer that is one of the biggest holidays here. Where people often dance around a midsummer pole. Or just hang out together eating and drinking.
