Each summer, the charming village of Fáskrúðsfjörður transforms into a vibrant celebration of French-Icelandic friendship during the beloved French Days Festival. This unique event honors the legacy of the French fishermen who once braved the North Atlantic and left a lasting cultural imprint on this remote fjord.
Join us for five festive days filled with music, food, storytelling, local art, French flair, and good vibes for all ages. There's something for everyone, from pétanque tournaments to sea-themed parades, from fresh Icelandic crepes to late-night concerts.
Stroll down the bilingual streets, explore the French Museum, raise a glass to old friendships, and make new memories in the heart of East Iceland.
Vive la Fáskrúðsfjörður! Vive la fête!
