0:43Now PlayingPeople took to the wilderness of Arctic Sweden early Saturday to ski under the midnight sun, despite the country's midsummer festivities being subdued this year because of the coronavirus.
They were celebrating midsummer in Riksgränsen in Sweden's Lapland, 200 kilometres (124 miles) north of the Arctic Circle.
At midsummer, the sun remains visible at midnight in the Arctic Circle.
Ski resorts in Sweden have remained open during the coronavirus pandemic.
Midsummer is one of the most important festivals in Sweden where friends and families gather together to sing, dance, eat and drink.
This year, people have been encouraged to follow most of the events online, but not everyone could resist the chance to see the spectacle for themselves.
