Nestled in the harbour, the massive Harpa Concert and Conference Hall provides the festival with three beautiful, state-of-the-art show rooms, along with restaurants, stores and a stunning view. There’s a super swanky bar with some excellent bartenders, but expect to shell out quite a few krónur for decent drinks. Also, all rooms are seated so don’t expect to do too much dancing here.
