Visit Archipelago
This weekend we celebrate Midsummer in Finland. It is one of our biggest national holidays!
On Midsummer Eve (this year on Friday 22.6) there is a lot of events and happenings all around:
- the decoration of Midsummer Poles
- the rising of the Midsummer Poles when decoration is ready
- Live music and dancing
- Midsummer buffés at many restaurants
- Midsummer Bonfires
On Midsummer Day (Saturday 23.6) the celebration continues with more Midsummer dances, but also other events to attend.
Here is a summary of some of the events going on tomorrow, Friday 22.6, in the Pargas archipelago (Pargas, Nagu, Korpo, Houtskär and Iniö).
Welcome to celebrate Midsummer with us!
Update: In Näsby, Houtskär, the midsummer pole decoration time has changed to 1pm. Also if there are very strong winds some Midsummer poles may not be erected tonight. ... See more
