The Arctic Festival 2022 Avant-Punk from Czech Republic – Už jsme doma and Gróa
September 15th at 20:00 – Gaukurinn

The fourth edition of this Arctic festival will take place in Reykjavík and Akureyri. It’s a beautiful place where people come together to share their love for Nordic culture and science through film, music, lectures and exhibitions. The Czech band UJD and the Icelandic Gróa will take care of the music for you. What’s not to love? KW

September 17th at 21:00 – Mengi – 3,500 ISK

If you haven’t heard of either one of them (which we can’t imagine), you’re in for a treat. Skúli and Ólöf have been collaborating since 2005 and appeared on each other’s albums and on the 17th they will share the stage! Head over to Mengi if you don’t want to miss out on this cosy, autumnal evening. KW
