And we probably don't have to say it but we're getting super excited. First things first: Dates! This year Reykjavik Pride is celebrating a 20 year anniversary so the programme is extra special and spans two weekends, August 8th-17th. We wanted to walk you through the Reykjavik pride events that we're MOST looking forward to!
Of course our first recommendation is that you go ahead and sign up for the Pink Pride Package The Pink Pride Package is a mix of colourful culture, amazing nature, fantastic music, great food and a lot of fun! We will make sure you won't miss a thing during this amazing Pride festival.
August 8th // Let's paint the town red and orange and yellow and.. well let's paint a rainbow! It's a tradition on the first day of Pride volunteers gather at a location TBC and paint a giant rainbow in the street to mark the start of the festival.
August 8th // Reykjavik Pride opening ceremony
Since we started going to Pride we've never missed out on the Opening ceremony of Reykjavik Pride, it's like a big rainbow family reunion!
