North of the Arctic Circle to the north, or south of the Antarctic Circle in Antarctica. On the Summer Solstice (June 21 in the northern hemisphere, or December 21 in the south) the Sun does not set. The closer to the pole you are, the longer the period of "midnight sun" you will experience around the Solstice.
During the summer months, the sun never sets in regions situated within the Arctic Circle, which includes countries like Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia, and parts of Alaska in the United States. This phenomenon is known as the Midnight Sun.
Due to the inclination of the earth's axis of rotation, regions nearest to one pole experience continuous day for some months, for example, the trading city of Tromso (about 50000 inhabitants) in northern Norway where the sun is visible continuously from late May to late July, while regions nearest to the other pole experience continuous night during that same period.

What season are you having in Australia when the sun does not set on the North Pole?
Winter. The Earth has an axis, tilted at about 23.5° from the perpendicular to Earth's orbit. When the Earth's north pole is tilted towards the Sun, the northern hemisphere is in summer while the southern hemisphere is in winter. That's the main time when the Sun doesn't set at the north pole. When the Earth's north pole is tilted away from the Sun the southern hemisphere is in summer while the northern hemisphere is in winter.
