What makes the Sweden calendar unique
Every country celebrates some New Year; the Sweden signature lives in the other dates: Sveriges nationaldag (National Day of Sweden, 6 Juni), found in no other country in the dataset; Midsommarafton (Midsummer Eve, 19 Juni), shared with a single other country. The longest dry spell of the year runs from Midsommardagen (20 Juni) to Alla helgons dag (31 Oktober): 133 straight days without a single nationwide holiday. In 2027, there will be 16 nationwide holidays and Sveriges nationaldag will fall on a Minggu (6 Juni).
