Summer begins with the summer solstice. The date varies, depending on the year, but, in the northern hemisphere, the solstice is on or around June 21.
I am not sure why "mid"summer would be celebrated on or near the start of summer, but, supposedly, it was indeed celebrated some time between June 21 and June 24.
Different cultures celebrated on different days within that period.
