The summer solstice day has the longest period of daylight except in the polar regions, where
daylight is continuous, from a few days to six months around the summer solstice. After the
summer solstice day, the days will get shorter. Worldwide, interpretation of the event has varied
among cultures, but most recognize the event in some way with holidays, festivals, and rituals.
For example: Midsummer festivals in the UK or in Scandinavia.
