The annual Night of Ancient Bonfires continues to be a significant cultural event, with organizer Mairold Vaik noting its relative resistance to rainfall. In the past 18 years, the event has only been disrupted by rain on two occasions. This year, three bonfires have been registered in America, indicating a growing international interest. Vaik shared this information during an interview with Vikerraadio, highlighting the tradition’s enduring appeal. The consistent good weather has likely contributed to the event’s popularity and successful continuation. This points to the tradition’s resilient nature despite potential weather challenges. The growing participation outside of Estonia suggests a widening reach for this ancient custom.
