Weather in Poland in June

The astronomical first day of summer (when the Sun reaches its highest point in the sky – the summer solstice) falls between June 20 and 22. In Poland, the summer solstice is the day with the most hours of sunlight of the whole year (16 hours 46 minutes, sunrise: 4.14 am, sunset: 9 pm) and is seen as the end of spring and the beginning of summer. Meteorologically speaking, summer in Poland begins on June 22, with autumn starting on September 23.

Technically, the spring season lasts until June 22, but June in Poland is considered a summer month. After all, it’s when school summer break starts (more about the dates of summer and winter school breaks in Poland in our post). The average monthly temperature in June in Poland is 16,6°C / 62°F, and the average monthly rainfall level is 69 mm (the second highest after July).

The Catholic church organizes a huge outdoor procession in each parish (in many places in Poland, traffic is stopped during the processions). The procession stops at four altars temporarily built on the streets. Girls dressed in white scatter flower petals. The altars are decorated with birch tree twigs that can be taken home later and kept the whole year to protect a family.

The first day of summer
The beginning of astronomical summer is also the longest day of the year. The sun will rise at 4.14 am and the sunset will start at 9 pm. Click here to read more about the weather in Poland in the summer.

Father’s Day
It’s not as loudly celebrated as Mother’s Day, however, each mother makes sure that children at least hug their father;)

St. John’s Night / Wreaths (Noc Świętojańska / Wianki)
The holiday has a pagan background (a pagan name is Sobótka, meaning fire). Nowadays, it is primarily the opportunity to celebrate midsummer with various festivities, including concerts, singing songs, or bonfire jumping. Women wear wildflower wreaths that are later thrown into rivers or ponds.

End of the school year in Polish schools
The last day of the school year is celebrated with speeches, concerts, shows. Teachers get flowers. Parents of younger kids usually take a day or a few hours off to participate in the ceremonies.
