No, its not. Norway,the land of the midnight sun, is called so because the northern part of the country is located above the artic circle, where the sun shines 24 hours a day from Mid-May to Mid-July and Because in northern Norway in the summer at latitudes above 66° North the sun doesn't set, which means that the sun is still up around midnight.

In the biggest city in northern Norway, Tromsø, the sun doesn't set for two whole months. This is what midnight looks like in the summer in Tromsø:

Of course this phenomena happens in other places at the same latitudes like Sweden, Finland, Russia, Alaska and Canada.

“The land of the midnight sun” is basically a Norwegian marketing stunt.

Answer:

The midnight sun is a natural phenomenon that occurs during the summer in places south of the Antarctic Circle and north of the Arctic Circle – including Northern Norway. The earth is rotating at a tilted axis relative to the sun, and during the summer months, the North Pole is angled towards our star.
