From mid-August until now, the Northern Lights have put on a breathtaking show in Rovaniemi! 💚 As the nights grew darker, the skies came alive with shimmering greens, purples, and even deep reds, creating unforgettable moments for those lucky enough to witness them.

Now, with just couple of weeks left before the nights become too bright and the Midnight Sun takes over on June 6th, it’s time to soak in the last auroras of the season. If you’re in Lapland, keep your eyes on the sky—this could be your final chance to see them before autumn!

Have you spotted the Northern Lights this season? Share your favorite moments below! 🌌✨

🌱 Today is Global Recycling Day that reminds us that recycling is not just a choice but a necessity for protecting our planet’s future. It encourages individuals, communities, and businesses worldwide to rethink waste—not as trash, but as valuable resources that can be repurposed and reused.

Here in Santa Claus Village, we believe that nature is our greatest treasure. That’s why we are working towards making recycling easier and more accessible in the near future, ensuring that we do our part in preserving the environment we cherish so much.
