For a relatively small capital, Reykjavik has more than its fair share of festivals and special events, with new ones popping up almost yearly. Here are details of some of the more popular…
FOOD & FUN
(20-25 Feb 2008 / 2009 dates to be confirmed) an invited group of top international chefs create special gourmet menus in a selection of the best restaurants in town, and compete for the Chef of the Year Award. These menus are made available to diners at a very reasonable fixed price (table reservations essential).
WINTER LIGHTS FESTIVAL
(7-9 Feb 2008 / 2009 dates to be confirmed) this celebrates the Nordic winter world and welcomes the ‘growing light after a long period of darkness.’ A variety of events for all the family will entertain visitors and locals alike and many shops, galleries and restaurants also join in the fun.
