+Midsummer celebrations + almost 19 hours of daylight
–The city empties around Midsummer itself, closing many businesses
June brings Midsummer, usually the Friday closest to 24 June, when Stockholmers head to the archipelago and summer houses, leaving the city quieter for a day or two even as overall visitor numbers rise. Daylight is close to its 19-hour peak.
Scores and crowd levels are my own judgement; temperatures are monthly averages. Higher scores are better: quieter, cheaper and more pleasant.
