Festivals and Holidays

Icelanders don’t limit their festivities to just Christmas and Easter; they embrace many holidays and festivals in Reykjavik, some with roots dating back to pre-Viking times.

In January, Thorrablot commemorates Viking cuisine, though some of these dishes might pose digestive challenges for tourists. The Reykjavik Icelandic Horse Festival offers a chance to admire the robust yet endearing Icelandic horses. Additionally, Bóndadajur serves as a heartfelt tribute to husbands, adding to the diversity of Icelandic celebrations and traditions.
