Midsummer Place to celebrate the Summer Solstice in style

Posted 30th May 2024

Midsummer Place is set to celebrate the Summer Solstice and help people understand the true meaning behind the centre’s ‘meaningful’ location and its link to the annually watched event that marks the longest day of the year.

The premium shopping centre has teamed up with local company Connected Collective to help create, promote and host these eye-opening events that are open to all. The four-day extravaganza starts on Thursday 20 June with a sunrise ‘welcome’ on Campbell Park and ends on Sunday 23 June with Tarot card reading and a Labyrinth walk – plus much more in between.
