Taste of Persia – In solidarity with the Iranian people
October 23rd, 17:00 – OPEN – FREE
The Iranian diaspora in Iceland want to show solidarity with Iranian women and protestors in the country, who are currently fighting for their fundamental rights. Together with the artist-run space OPEN, Iranians in Reykjavík will host ‘Taste of Persia,’ a night that promises a glimpse into Persian culture, music, food, and art through ages. The event is free of charge, although there is a small charge for the food. Everyone is welcome! IZ
Brynja – ‘Repeat’ launch party
October 20th, 18:00 – 20:00 – 12 Tónar – FREE
What makes today so special? You might think that it’s because it’s National Brandied Fruit Day, but in fact you’d be wrong: it’s Brynja’s debut album release day! Well, actually, it’s both National Brandied Fruit day AND the day ‘Repeat’ is finally released to the world. If you want a chance to hear ‘Repeat’ in person and celebrate with the artist herself, you can pop over to 12 Tónar tonight. You could even bring some brandied fruit with you, I guess. JG
