If you've ever deplored the lack of pagan-inflected, agrarian solstice parties in NYC, stop deploring and head over to Battery Park for a proper summer festival, Scandinavian style. At the annual Swedish Midsummer Festival, you'll picnic in the grass, decorate the midsummer pole, make flower wreaths, play traditional games and dance to authentic fiddle music. There will also be food stands from NYC's Swedish restaurants and purveyors. Wear your most Tess of the D'Urbervilles summer frock and go worship the sun!
