Scotland is a pretty high latitude, so for a month or so either side of the Summer Solstice (around June 21) there are only a few hours of darkness. And at very high latitudes, the Sun never gets very far below the northern horizon, so the sky doesn't get really dark.

Why doesn't it get dark in Scotland in june?

Scotland is located at a high latitude where the summer days are long due to its proximity to the North Pole. In June, Scotland experiences the phenomenon of the midnight sun, where the sun does not fully set, resulting in extended daylight hours and minimal darkness. This means that during the summer solstice in June, parts of Scotland can experience near 24-hour daylight.
