The term appears in the opening line of his famous poem, "The Cremation of Sam McGee". Published 1907.. "There are strange things done 'neath the midnight sun By the men who moil for gold."

Official slogan for Yukon Territory, Canada, 1953 to 1970. "Land of the Midnight Sun" as a term was coined in 1953 when it was used as the first licence plate slogan for Yukon Territory. Replaced in 1970 by "Home of the Klondike". Since then, "land of the midnight sun" as a descriptive term has been borrowed and used to describe any place on earth that experiences extreme seasonal daylength. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bonsaijerry (talk • contribs) 18:07, 5 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
