Valborgsmässoafton (Walpurgis)
Swedish mythical, traditional day, celebrated by lighting large bonfires, singing spring-themed songs, and blasting fireworks.
Valborg has also become one of the big academic festivities. The celebrations start early in the morning with champagne breakfast with strawberries. In Uppsala, there is a fun river rafting competition arranged by students. Accompanied by the loved voices of the men's choir OD (Orphei Drängar) https://od.se/ Valborg is the day for the donning of the student caps. This tradition is especially big in Uppsala where Carolina Hill is the place to be.
