Midsummer's Eve "When the village folk came together"

Midsummer. 

23 June 2025 from 19.00 to 00:00

The bonfire has always brought together villagers from near and far to share a big summer party and catch their breath before the haymaking begins. As a community, it's always more fun to party and easier to work. Throughout the ages, people have also come together to face adversity and accomplish great things, whether it's standing up for their freedom, promoting national education or holding song festivals.

On Midsummer Day at the Open Air Museum, we will take a trip back in time to Midsummer evenings from different eras, where special things are created by joining forces.

Performers: Kukerpillid, Leigarid, Tabasalu Brass and many others.

Visitors are welcome to bring their own reusable dishes. Buildings that do not have a Midsummer Eve program will be open until 10:30 PM.

Buildings that have a Midsummer Eve program will be open until 11 PM.
