June 17th marks Iceland’s National Day,
a celebration of the country’s liberation
out from under the grip of Denmark’s
Imperial claw, the birthday of the19th
century saga scholar and revolution-
ary leader Jón Sigurðsson, and the only
day out of the year where you are ex-
pected to hold a hot dog, your child’s
hand, and wave a little Icelandic flag
all at once. Festivities begin at five min-
utes to ten with the rousing timbre of
church bells throughout central Reyk-
javík, succeeded by the emergence of
the traditionally garbed “Woman of the
Mountains” to give the opening speech
at Austurvöllur. After a brief church ser-
vice, there commences a lively parade
of euphoric, face-painted children and
dutifully attending parents down Lau-
garvegur, followed by food and street
performances at midday and finally
concluded with outdoor concerts into
the evening. Iceland’s National Day is
a great cultural experience for tourists
and a traditional necessity for Iceland-
ers - either way, a ritual that demands
attendance.
