Reykjavik Pride

Reykjavik Pride has grown to be one of, if not the largest, gay pride festivities in Iceland. The festival honors the LGBTQ+ community, as well as its supporters, friends, and family members. Colorful costumes, loud party music, people dancing, and glitter abound throughout Reykjavik's downtown area. Saturday is the major day of the festival, which begins with a massive parade in the city center and ends with all-night partying. This event is open to the public and is free to attend and has become one of the most famous festivals in Iceland.

Whether you're gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, straight, asexual, female, male, young, or old, it doesn't matter. Reykjavik Pride is attended by everyone. Every year, the former mayor dresses up in drag, and the current president delivers a speech honoring diversity. The festival is always held on the second weekend of August.
