Iceland’s Secret Solstice- June 16-18, 2017

Ever since its first year in 2014 Iceland’s Secret Solstice has caught the attention of music lovers around the globe, and has even been dubbed the most unique festival on the planet. Due to Iceland’s close proximity to the Arctic, the sun never sets during the summer solstice weekend when the festival is held, meaning guests experience never-ending daylight for the entirety of the event. The festival goes beyond the limits of typical music festivals with extreme side events, including the world’s only party inside a glacier and the Midnight Sun Boat Party. However, the Icelandic music festival will be adding a brand new music-driven nature adventure to this year’s calendar.

Secret Solstice presents The Lava Tunnel

The Lava Tunnel will be two exclusive events held underground within natural lava tubes that form natural subterraneanIceland's Secret Solstice arteries. These amazing snaking chambers will become host to two acoustic performances by a prominent Icelandic artist, that’ll be witnessed on June 17th and 18th by a small handful of guests.

Iceland’s Raufarholshellir lava tunnels was formed over 5,000 years ago during a volcanic eruption, and has left a mark on the landscape that’s lasted throughout the centuries.  This one-of-a kind experience is sure to leave a mark for all who attend! Only 50 lucky people will be able to secure tickets to each show. You can purchase your ticket Here.
