Iceland Airwaves - October 13 - 17 2010

12/10/2010

This year's Iceland Airwaves festival promises to be one of the the best yet with a fantastic line up of established and up-and-coming bands and a great range of off venue shows. Apart from that, while you're at it, you can absorb the Reykjavik city and the country as well.

Festival-goers this year will see over 200 bands at 9 venues, including headliners Robyn, Ham, Moderat, Hjaltalin, Everything Everything, Dikta, Hercules and Love affair and Apparat Organ Quartet.

Following on from the sold-out success of Iceland Airwaves through the years, this year's edition promises to be equally popular .
