Iceland Airwaves is a special festival for true music lovers. Every year in November, downtown Reykjavík comes alive for three days and nights, filled with non-stop music, with performances everywhere from small record shops and cool bars to fancy churches, nightclubs and large-scale venues. Iceland Airwaves Festival is the world’s northernmost music festival, halfway between North America and Europe, bringing together the country’s best emerging music talent and progressive international acts from Europe, North America and beyond. This year, Iceland Airwaves will be held from November 2 to 4, 2023. Return flights can also be booked including a festival pass Icelandair website.
