Since 1953 people have been making the trip to Stromsburg the 3rd full weekend in June to celebrate their Swedish heritage or to be Swedish for the day. Swedish food, costumes, and dancing can be enjoyed throughout the festivities. There is plenty of free entertainment in the downtown square, the Stromsburg Public Library and around town.
The Skjaldborg Vikings will educate you and entertain you while they reenact Viking life. The chicken BBQ on Friday night is a Stromsburg tradition. Basketball and horseshoe tournaments are annual events as is the Sunday car show. The kids can look forward to hours of entertainment while you enjoy crafts in the square or in the local shops. Don’t miss the grand parade on Saturday evening.
