Come out to the archipelago and celebrate Midsummer, swing to rockabilly beats, and dance the night away to the sounds of Lasse Stefanz during the dance band festival.
There are cosy evenening markets in the village throughout the summer, and on 20 June, the traditional Midsummer is celebrated in three different villages. Föglö Day on 28 June is also a real highlight with a market and activities on the square in Degerby.
The longest dance band festival in the Nordics
July brings a full week of music, dance and joy. Get ready for Åland’s Dance Band Festival at the village square and at the archipelago restaurant Seagram that hosts the eight days of dancing – the longest dance band festival in the Nordics! Here you can combine good food and drink with a stroll along the beach, the dance floor is right by the water. The line-up includes some of Sweden's best dance bands, such as Lasse Stefanz, Larz-Kristerz and Casanovas.
At the same time, the Countrytorget village event takes place on 4–13 July with food, drink, music and free entry to the square in the middle of Degerby. It delivers a retro vibe with rockabilly tunes, classic brewskies and 50s–60s hits.
Seagram then continues to fill the summer and autumn with sing-alongs, various bands, a shrimp feast and Oktoberfest.
Many people also choose Föglö for its tranquillity and nature. In addition to dancing and singing, there is everything from disc golf, nature trails and museums to beaches, forest yoga and farm visits.
