Absolute Swedish Traditions
Friday 05th, September 2008
The nice thing about customs and traditions is that they grow to be a part of our life cycle, giving shape to our lives and giving us a sense of time, and also lending the year a seasonal rhythm.
In Sweden, many customs are closely associated with the changing seasons. Swedes celebrate summer with an intensity that can only be found in a people who have just endured a long, dark winter. They light candles at Advent and pay homage to a white-clad Lucia with a crown of candles in her hair.
Swedish food tends to be influenced by the seasons. Several of Sweden's traditional festivities are linked to the farming year - to spring tillage, to the hunting and fishing season or to harvest time.
This magic evening makes it possible for you to experience all Swedish traditions in one night with all your senses. A conferensier will guide you through the evening that will be topped with tasty food, traditional beverage, good music and exellent performences.
