List í Ljósi / Art in the light

The Festival Art in the Light is an annual festival taking place each February that celebrates the return of the sun after a long winter by transforming Seyðisfjörður town and landscape into a brightly lit hub of activity. Commissioned, illuminated artworks from artists all over the world are installed throughout Seyðisfjörður as well as a family-friendly program of indoor events, performances and films.
