The story behind it
Kirunafestivalen was created to strengthen community spirit in Kiruna and to mark the city’s heritage. It takes place in late June around Midsummer, when locals gather in the city center to enjoy music, food, and festivities under the 24-hour daylight. The festival has become an expression of Kiruna’s identity and pride, especially significant as the city undergoes transformation due to mine relocation.
