During the 'Bright Nights' (lyse nætter) in June and July, the evening lasts until 11 PM or later. This phrase is used constantly during these months. It is considered polite to say this to a host. It signals that you are enjoying the atmosphere they have created. Many classic Danish songs start with descriptions of a 'dejlig aften', cementing it as a romantic and nostalgic ideal in the national psyche.
