On Midsummer Sunday, June 21, we start decorating the maypole in the morning and usually have it set up by 11 a.m.
We prepare a lunch for the public that consists of Swedish meatballs, lingon, bread, cucumber dill salad and optional pastry plates.
At 2 p.m. we have a costume parade of Swedish costumes from various parts of Sweden.
Then we have a stage show that includes Swedish singing and dancing.
Finally we invite the public to dance around the Maypole to Swedish music.
