What is National Day in Sweden and where to Celebrate National Day in Sweden?
National Day of Sweden is a national holiday observed in Sweden on 6 June every year. Prior to 1983, the day was celebrated as the Swedish Flag Day. At that time, the day was renamed the Swedish national day by the Riksdag. In 2004, the Swedish parliament voted to make it a public holiday, which may cause people to become more interested in celebrating it. The final decision took decades to reach − various proposals had been discussed under a succession of governments.
National Day History.
It was back in 1916 when National Day or Flag Day was first celebrated. This was after a full year of deliberation about how to make people more patriotic. June 6 was chosen in honor of King Gustav Vasa the same king behind the epic fails known as the Vasa ship who was crowned king on this day in 1523, laying the foundation of modern Sweden. It was also on this day that a new constitution was adopted in 1809. The name was changed to Swedish Flag Day in 1983 but it wasn’t until 2005 that it became an official public holiday which may be why celebrating with the same gusto as other countries celebrate their national day hasn’t quite taken hold.
