Now, it's possible to do so, virtually, as the kind folk of English Heritage there will be streaming the event, free of charge, starting with sunset of their Saturday 20th on through to sunrise of their Sunday 21st.
That corresponds to 4:26 PM on Saturday, June 20th, here in Savannah for sunset, and 11:52 PM on Saturday, June 20th, here in Savannah, for the sunrise on June 21st at Stonehenge.
I've attached a file that answers questions about the event, including when the sunset and sunrise will occur here on the east coast.
I plan to be watching via their youtube channel.
Maybe I'll 'see' y'all there?"
So I wrote to my dear ones not on the Book of Face.
I wanted to share the event here, on my beach, too, for anyone adrift here.
Here are the helpful answers provided by English Heritage to any with questions.

Lots of you have been in touch and we've answered some of your most frequently asked questions below.

Because of current restrictions on mass gatherings and guidance on social distancing, unfortunately we can't offer any access to Stonehenge for this year's summer solstice.
Please DO NOT travel to Stonehenge as you'll not be able to enter the site.
We'll reopen when it's safe to do so and we'll announce further details as soon as we can.
We're committed to offering managed open access at solstice and look forward to welcoming you in future years.
