The Midnight Sun

Experience the otherworldly phenomena known as the midnight sun, when above the Arctic Circle the sun does not set behind the horizon in the summer. In Rovaniemi, for a full month from June 6th to July 7th, you can witness this mesmerizing phenomenon right from the doorstep of your private villa and see the moments where night and day blend into one. However, the brighter nights are present the whole summer starting from late May until August, which means even when the sun sets during some periods of time, there is no darkness, but beautiful colours of golden dusk.

The summer solstice takes place around the 20th and 21st of June and the traditional midsummer is celebrated around that time by the locals. This period of time is characterized by the most mystical and unique beliefs and age-old traditions deeply connected to nature and cultural heritage.
