Heres a fact for you, Jāņi or Līgo which is celebrated to well most of the country is also an British thing to. Summer solstice is a Pagan, Christian and Celtic festival and although its not widely known here some people do go to Stonehenge to celebrate the new sun.

But yet - in modern Britain it is not as wide-spread thing as in Latvia. And if you talk of midsummer you are more likely to meet a blank stare in Uk than in Latvia :D
