The summer solstice is celebrated in a variety of ways across the globe. From sky gazing in Croatia to sun salutations in Times Square, here are Cheapflights.com’s top places to enjoy the longest day of the year.

1. Secret Solstice Festival, Reykjavik, Iceland

An Icelandic sunset on the solstice is around midnight and sunrise is a little before 3am. Iceland’s Secret Solstice Midnight Sun Music Festival is a three-day music festival with electronic, hip-hop, rock, and reggae acts that takes advantage of the 72 hours of sunlight.

2. Stonehenge, Wiltshire, England

Neolithic builders created the massive stone structure with primitive tools made from wood and deer antlers. Today, the summer solstice draws a mix of druids, pagans, and miscellaneous revelers to witness the sun rising above the stone circle, which aligns perfectly with the summer solstice sunrise.

3. Solstice in Times Square, New York, New York, United States

Solstice in Times Square, a day-long yoga event now in its 13th year, begins at 7 am on the solstice and continues until just before sunset. Adding to the excitement, the day has also been named International Day of Yoga by the United Nations General Assembly.

4. Solstice Fires, Tyrol, Austria

Lighting mountain fires to mark the solstice is an Alpine tradition that dates back to medieval times when native tribes used the mystical fires to worship the earth.
