Stockholm Weather: When is the Best Time to Go
The best time to visit Stockholm is in the summer months between June and August. This is when the temperatures are warmer and the daylight lasts the longest. The summer temperatures range from around 20°C-23°C (68°-74°F) with cooler nights. Both of my trips to Stockholm have been in the summer and the weather is just perfect that time of year.
Even when visiting in the summer be sure to pack a light jacket or sweater as the temperatures can still be a bit cooler especially in the evening.
