    Tips

    Midsummer is one of the most celebrated festivals in Åland. Ålanders take advantage of the long daylight hours and prefer to celebrate outdoors with family and friends in their gardens, in the countryside, or in the archipelago.

    Houses are decorated with leaves, and wreaths and bouquets of summer flowers are made. Pickled herring and new potatoes with dill, grilled meat, and strawberries for dessert are usually on the menu, along with chilled schnapps and beer for the adults.

    For locals and summer visitors alike, the village's Midsummer pole is a center of attraction. It is decorated and set up together. In some villages, music is still played at the local youth center or village hall for the Midsummer Dance. The dancing continues until the sun rises again in the middle of the night.
