Solution

Norway becomes the ‘Land of Midnight Sun’ during the month of June.

Explanation:

Norway is called the “Land of the Midnight Sun” because during the Northern Hemisphere summer (around the June solstice, 21 June), the North Pole is tilted toward the Sun and regions at high northern latitudes like Norway can receive continuous daylight (sunlight 24 hours a day).
