KÖLD Music Festival

KÖLD Music Festival takes place in Neskaupstaður in February every year. The residents of this remote town were tired of eventless winters and wanted to brighten up the dark days with a lively event - and just like that KÖLD was born.

The people of Neskaupstaður sure know how to host a music festival, with now three festivals taking place every year in the town.  Each year, in collaboration with The Music center of Austurland honor a musician from the region which claims the title of East Iceland Musician of the Year.
