Iceland Airwaves is the best, most friendly, most
exciting few days of
musical highs imaginable. It runs Wednesday to Saturday (with bits on
the
Sunday). At night the gigs are in 7 or 8 diffrerent venues (indoors)
from bars
with capacity of 300 to one club and one art gallery holding about 1,500
each.
All venues are within a few minutes of each other on foot. If you run
into an
occasional queue, that's just a sign to go and discover something
brilliant and
unexpected elsewhere. The days can be filled with low-key performaces in
cafes,
shops, galleries and streets around town. Or you can go off and explore
outside
Reykjavik. The golden circle is a 6 hour coach trip stopping off at
stunning
wateralls, lakes, craters and geysirs or you can visit the famous Blue
Lagoon,
where there is an Airwaves hangover party on the Saturday with live
music whilst
you bathe.
