Myth Midsummer is celebrating the Summer Equinox at The Carlton Club on Saturday, June 20th 2026 from 5-12.
Worship the Sun with circle dancing around a fire, queer Balkan, Slavic, Baltic performance, wreath/crown making, and DJs.
Schedule of the day will be posted on Instagram @myth.mcr
✹ Optional but very encouraged: queer your traditional folklore, get inspired by Baltic, Slavic or Balkan Midsummer creatures, fairies (sânziene), deities, subvert traditionally gendered rituals, make it camp for the Sun ✹
There are no traditional dishes associated with Midsummer, rather herb gathering and medicinal making potions. Please support the venue by purchasing from the food vendors and refresh your drinks! If you would like to bring Balkan, Slavic or Baltic food, it can be a small taste: a sweet treat or a small bite.
