Kaleo at Þingvellir National Park

KALEO is playing at Þingvellir National Park, in the Bergmál festival in Iceland on the 20th of June 2026.

On the summer solstice, the midnight sun will become part of the experience: an endless golden hour against one of Iceland’s most iconic landscapes.

Bergmál (Echo) draws from the natural acoustics of Þingvellir, where voices once carried across the rift valley during Alþingi gatherings. 

Known for their powerful, emotionally-charged live shows, KALEO is one of Iceland's most internationally recognized music acts, with roots that trace back to the country's vibrant music scene.

IcelandAir are offering a package which includes return flights, a festival pass and shuttle bus transfers between Reykjavík and the Bergmál festival at Þingvellir National Park.

Located between the drifting tectonic plates of North America and Eurasia, Þingvellir is not only a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but also the historic heart of Iceland, where the nation’s parliament was founded over a thousand years ago.

KALEO will headline BERGMÁL at Þingvellir, joined by a handpicked group of artists. The lineup features some of Iceland’s most celebrated musicians, including Emilíana Torrini, Mugison, Stuðmenn, Helgi Björnsson, Hjálmar, GDRN, Júníus Meyvant, KK, and Árný Margrét – with more special guests to be announced.

I have to say I'm tempted, but we haven't quite finished for the summer by then....

 

The venue is significant as it is a World Heritage Site and has special cultural and historic significance to the people of Iceland as well as its stunning landscape: it's one of my favourite places on the island. 

I wonder whether there were some people who weren't impressed with the location for this particular concert and the environmental impact of it.
