Swedish Midsummer Party in Ios & Paros

Swedish Midsummer Party in Ios is one of the most important summer events in Ios island, attracting visitors from all over the world. This event celebrates the summer solstice, a tradition that originates from Sweden, and takes place every year on a Friday between June 19 and 25.

The celebrations begin early in the morning in Chora, where participants gather in the narrow streets and bars to start the fun.

As the day progresses, a lively procession forms and heads towards Mylopotas beach, with participants wearing the blue and yellow colors of the Swedish flag. This procession creates an impressive spectacle, full of energy and excitement.

The climax of the day takes place at FarOut Beach Club, on Mylopotas Beach. There, the revelers continue the party with music, dancing and entertainment that lasts until late at night. FarOut Beach Club offers the ideal venue for this event, with its outdoor dance floor filled with happy people celebrating Midsummer.

It is worth noting that the Swedish Midsummer Party is not exclusively aimed at Swedes or Scandinavians. Everyone is welcome to join in, paint their faces blue and yellow and become "Swedes for a day". This event offers a unique opportunity to experience a combination of cultural tradition and island entertainment, creating memories that will remain unforgettable.
