The end of summer parties: Midsummer Fest

Hotels & Resorts 25/07/2024

Midsummer festivities became popular in recent years, due to the famous film by acclaimed director Ari Aster, although it is a very ancient Nordic holiday that venerates the summer solstice, the abundance of nature and the arrival of this season.

In many cultures it is believed that from the solstice (the longest day of the year), and throughout the season, there are a kind of “magical powers” in nature, so it is a time to pay tribute to the sun and give thanks for prosperity.

On this occasion we present some options for Midsummer rituals that you can do to renew energy for the end of the year, as well as a summary of some of the parties and family activities that you can do this end of summer when you stay with us in Park Royal hotels and resorts.

Midsummer Rituals


Midsummer rituals vary from region to region, but some of the most common include:
  • Lighting bonfires: it is one of the oldest traditions, as it represents the light of the sun and its power to overcome darkness.
  • Collecting herbs and flowers: they are believed to have special healing properties at this time of year. Making flower crowns and wearing them is a popular custom.
  • Dances and songs: Midsummer celebrations are full of music and dance; either around the "midsommarstång" or "maypole", a pole decorated with flowers and leaves, while singing traditional songs.
  • Bathing in the sea: in some cultures, it is believed that bathing in the sea, lakes and rivers purifies and renews energy.

Family summer activities in Cancun


Parties are celebrated all over the world during this season, as it is part of the spirit of summer. In addition, it coincides with a great period of rest in schools and some work sectors.

If you are enjoying summer in the Mexican Caribbean, you will be able to live at its peak this season. At Park Royal Beach Cancún we will celebrate our Midsummer Festival on August 15th. To experience it in the best way, the Funtastic Team has designed an entertainment program that will surprise children and adults.

Throughout the different editions of our Midsummer Festival, some of the most applauded activities are those that mix sports and fun, because they promote family closeness. With this idea, we invite you to take a Zumba class on the beach or immerse yourself in a fierce volleyball game.

You will also find reasons for family coexistence during activities related to dance and crafts. The team prepared a batucada to spread the summer spirit to all our guests; With these Latin rhythms you can enjoy a foam party. For little ones who prefer quieter activities, making flower crowns to decorate their hair is another of our options.

At night, for the older ones, a neon party under the light of the crescent moon will fill them with energy to give rise to a spectacular end of the year.

If you are also looking to get to know the destination, the end of summer is a festive time in Cancun, that offers a wide range of activities and events. You will find several electronic music festivals that attract international DJs.
