Midsommar is an age-old tradition in Sweden. A flower-decked pole is erected, and revellers dance and sing around it. Why not put a flower garland on your head and join in the fun!

The festivities continue with a concert by songwriter and musician Isabel Sörling, who navigates freely between improvisation, folk and avant-garde music. She’ll be performing her latest critically acclaimed album Mareld, which takes its inspiration from traditional African music.

Swedish specialities available all day at our market stalls!
