A Midsummer celebration at Old World Wisconsin
Experience the mirthful magic of a Scandinavian “Midsomer,” or Midsummer, at Old World Wisconsin. An ancient seasonal tradition in Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland and Denmark, Midsummer celebrations have been held since the Iron Age as a means of leaving cold, dark winter nights behind in favor of bright, cheerful summers of bounty, fertility and prosperity.
The spirit and tradition of Midsummer remains alive at Old World—upon entering the Scandinavian Homesteads area of Old World Wisconsin, immerse yourself in our faithful re-creation of this festive event, featuring barrel-and-open fermented traditional ales, samples from special Old World-brewed casks and a host of traditional cultural activities.
Learn traditional Finnish and open-hearth recipes, join a Norwegian-inspired nature study at the Raspberry School, dry flowers and dye wool, join in on a Scandinavian Maypole Dance and much more—reserve your tickets now to secure your spot!
