Denmark, Norway a me Suède nui nā hana hoʻomana Midsummer
ʻO ka midsummer ka mele kahiko kaulana loa o Scandinavia i ka halaʻana o ka Kalikimaka. ʻO ka hoʻolauleʻa kahiko o ka Solstice Summer,ʻo Midsummer ka lā lōʻihi loa o ka makahiki (Iune 21). Ma Suetena, mahalo nuiʻiaʻo Midsummer ma keʻano he lā hoʻomaʻemaʻe aupuni (eʻike pū i nā lā aloha'āinaʻo Scandinavian ). ʻO ka hapanui o nā hoʻoulu maikaʻiʻana o ka Midsummer e hanaʻia ma ka Pōʻalima ma waena o Iune 20 a me Iune 26.
ʻO ka mahaloʻana i ka Summer Solstice
ʻO ka hoʻolauleʻaʻana i ka Solstice Summer Summer kahi hana kahiko loa, e pili ana i nā manawa mua o ka manawa Karistiano. ʻO ka Midsummer he mea ulu nui i nāʻano hana a me nā hana e pili ana i keʻano a me ka manaolana no kaʻohi maikaʻiʻana i ka hāʻuleʻana o ka wā.
ʻO nā moʻokūʻauhau Scandinavian Midsummer e puka mai ana i nā wā o ka palima, e hōʻike ana i ka hoʻokahuliʻana o ka pōʻeleʻele i nā mana o ke akua lā. ʻO kēia ka palena waena o ka manawa o kaʻohiʻana i nā manawa pōkole, a ma iaʻano, ua manaʻoʻia he mea nui e ho'āʻo e hoʻopili i ka maikaʻi a me ka pōmaikaʻi ma luna o Midsummer, me ka hoʻoikaika nuiʻana i ka paleʻana i nāʻuhaneʻino a me nā hala.
E like me kēlā me kēia moʻomeheu Scandinavian,ʻo ka hoʻokipaʻana me nā mea'ē aʻe e hele pū me kaʻai maikaʻi. ʻO ka meaʻai maʻamau no ka Midsummer ma Scandinavia he kīlala me nā iʻa a me nā iʻa pahū, nā hua hou, a me kekahi mau schnapps a me ka pia no nā poʻe mākua.

Hoʻokani nā Swedes i ka pole waena i ka manawa e hoʻolohe ana i nā mele kahiko kahiko iʻikeʻia e nā mea a pau. Ma Suetena, e like me nā lāhui'ē aʻe,ʻo ka magic of Midsummer nā pale kālā (e hoʻomanaʻo nei i nā'ōlelo Hawaiʻi o Walpurgis ), a me ka weheweheʻana i nā mea e hiki mai ana.

Hanaʻia kēia ma Denmark no ka hoʻomanaʻoʻana i ka puhiʻiaʻana o nā maʻi kilokilo o ka Ekalesia ma ka 16th a me ka 17.
