Festivities in Sweden

Sweden.se has a nice introduction to festivities in Sweden. Since they can be quite peculiar (even to Europeans), read it at least once so you won't end up with, for example, no candy when children visit you on the eve of Easter Friday (I did). (For Easter, read this additional article at Sweden.se.)

Christmas is also a bit different in Sweden. Here is The Local's guide. 

April 30th is Valborg. See The Local's article on how Swedes celebrate this date.
