Also known as Midsummer, Summer Solstice and Alban Hefin, Litha generally falls in the third week of June, usually between the 17 and 23 of the month. It is the time of the longest day of the year – after this, each day becomes progressively shorter until Yule – the longest night of the year.

Absolutely perfect for someone that wants a small and quick glimpse into how to celebrate Litha.
This was a quick read and exactly what I was looking for. I am not completely ignorant to the celebration of Litha, but I wanted to seek out more information on the actual act of celebrating. This was exactly what I was looking for. I'll definitely be referencing it this coming Friday.
