Reykjavík has an active cultural life through most of the year, and is especially strong in music and the visual arts. The classical performing-arts scene tends to quiet down somewhat in summer, though a growing number of rock and jazz concerts as well as a new chamber music festival held in Harpa, called Reykjavík Midsummer Music, have been helping to fill in the lull. The Reykjavík Arts Festival is an annual event held in May. Past festivals have drawn Luciano Pavarotti and David Bowie, among other stars. Check out The Reykjavík Grapevine (www.grapevine.is) for up-to-date listings; it's biweekly in summer, monthly in winter.
You can go to Light Nights to watch traditional folk performances (in English) based on Icelandic sagas and folktales; it takes place in July and August, and has been running for over 40 years. Tickets are sold at the door, starting one hour before the show, but reserving a ticket is recommended.
Baldursgata 37, Reykjavík, Capital Region, 101, Iceland
