Traditional Midsummer celebrations

Welcome to join us for this year's Midsummer celebrations at the Camp!

Vaxholms Hembygdsförening organizes this year together with Destination Vaxholm again a traditional midsummer celebration with midsummer pole, dance, fiddlers and folk dance teams. Feel free to bring a picnic basket and flowers for a wreath.

Vaxholm restaurants and cafés serve midsummer food. We recommend Hamnkrogen, Waxholms Hotell and Vaxholms Hembygdsgårds café.

Learn more about Midsummer traditions here.
