Feb 7: Winter Lights Festival

Early February is time for Vetrarhátíð: the Winter Lights Festival.

There are events in many locations. One highlight is the light show at Hallgrimskirkja.

The event celebrates both the winter world and the growing sun light after a long period of darkness. The program consists of light installations, culture and outdoor activities. The festival provides entertainment for Reykjavík’s locals and guests alike. 
The programme reflects the many faces of Reykjavík´s capital area; with the participation of all the major museums and thermal pools.


Some images from previous festivals are on the main website, along with details of this year's festival. If you're going there this weekend, enjoy and please send us some pictures to add to this blog post.
