It’s high time for roses in Copenhagen! 🥀🌹
💥In Denmark 🇩🇰, Sweden, Finland, and other Nordic countries, this is the period of the year with the longest daylight hours. Roses 🌹 are often at their peak around Midsummer. 🌞
🔥 If you're in Copenhagen, Midsummer (Sankt Hans) celebrations are usually held on 23 June, with bonfires and community gatherings.
Some places for celebration:

✅Amager Strandpark – a beach setting with bonfires and a relaxed midsummer atmosphere by the sea.
✅ Reffen – a lively waterfront celebration with a large bonfire, street food, music, choir performances, and sunset views over the harbour.
✅Tivoli Gardens – Sankt Hans bonfire on Tivoli Lake, accompanied by choir singing and midsummer traditions.
✅ Ofelia Plads is one of the nicest places in Copenhagen for Sankt Hans. Time: 18-22:15
