Since 1953 people have been making the trip to Stromsburg during the third weekend in June to celebrate their Swedish heritage or to be Swedish for the day.
Swedish food, costumes and dancing can be enjoyed throughout the festivities. There is plenty of free entertainment in the downtown square, the Stromsburg Public Library and around town. The Skjaldborg Vikings will educate and entertain you while they reenact Viking life.
The chicken and pork chop BBQ on Friday night is a Stromsburg tradition.
Don't miss the grand parade on Saturday evening.
Softball, basketball and horseshoe tournaments are annual events as is the Sunday car show.
The kids can look forward to hours of entertainment at the carnival while you enjoy crafts in the square or in the local shops.
