People throughout Scandi- navia and other Nordic coun- tries celebrate on the longest day of the year because winter can be long, dark and dreary.

It was first called Scandinavian Midsummer Festival in 1968. “The things I like best are family. And heritage,” Lam- pi said. “You can go to the festival and see multigener- ational – four generations of families – who’ve all come to the festival to celebrate their heritage.” Highlights include featured entertainers Harald Hau- gaard/Helen Blum Band from Denmark and Bjorn and Ole from Norway as well as Icelandic horses. All three days include ven- dor booths, a beer garden, entertainment and the hors- es.
