Every year, Gothenburg hosts Midsummer celebrations around the city and the surrounding region.

Among the annual favorites are the celebrations in the city park Slottsskogen and on several of the picturesque islands in the Gothenburg archipelago. Just outside central Gothenburg, you can celebrate rurally at Kättilsröd’s 4H farm or the city farm Galaxen in Bergsjön.

Swedish Midsummer is also a perfect reason to make a trip to one of the nearby castles Gunnebo, Tjolöholm and Nääs or the Bohus fortress, all of which have traditional celebrations.
