A Round-Up Everyone Can Enjoy!
Multiple Locations - 3500 ISK (4-day passes),
2000 – 2900 ISK (Single night passes)
The term ‘réttir’ being uttered in the Icelandic
Autumn would typically bring compassionate
tears to a vegetarian’s eyes and hunger pains to
carnivorous stomachs, anticipating the fresh lamb
and sheep by-products coming to a nearby table
in the not-so-distant future. The Round-Up on
everybody’s lips this autumn, however, is one that
will unite the masses for four nights of musical
feasting that will leave herbivores and meat-eaters
alike salivating and begging for seconds.
The first ever Reykjavík Round-Up is the love child of gogoyoko’s Eldar Ástþórsson
and Borgin’s Steinþór Helgi Arnsteinsson, conceived in the heat of Innipúkinn when
the two high-rollers in Reykjavík’s music scene noted what a massive opportunity
there was for a musical endeavour in late September running alongside both the
Reykjavík International Film Festival and the You Are in Control music, arts and
media conference. For such a concise planning period this Round-Up is a sizeable
endeavour and will herd together well over fifty acts and DJ’s to be devoured by
their adoring public. Mugison, Hjaltalin, Ensími, FM Belfast, Mammút, Reykjavík!,
Berndsen, <3 Svanhvít. Drooling yet?
Live music Mecca’s NASA, Sódóma Reykjavík and Batteríið will be the primary
execution points for the Round-Up, accessible to everybody wearing the ridiculously
cheaply priced 4-day wrist-band. Seriously people, it’s only 3500 ISK for all four days.
That’s ‘bargain basement’ if ever the cliché were applicable. Jacobsen and Grand
Rokk will be hosting some choice events open to wrist-banders and single ticket
holders and Rósenberg and Fríkirkjan are serving up events so exclusive that not
even those adorned with much-coveted wrist-bands will be able to enter without
paying their dues.
The Round-Up gets underway September 23rd and will keep all you 20+ music
fiends going until late night on the 26th. Four-night wrist-bands are already on sale
and are both limited and in high demand – a dangerous combination – so get thyself
to midi.is and procure one post haste. If you’re one of the unfortunate lambs finding
yourself off to the slaughter without a wrist-band all is not lost: single night tickets
ranging from 2000 – 2900 ISK will be available as of September 20th. This is gonna
be huge!

1000 ISK
If you’re looking for an evening of pure
musical pleasure and spectacle look
no further than the sensational line-up
combining their musical prowess at
Grand Rokk on the 19th. Pinu, Retrön,
Sudden Weather Change and Sykur!
These guys will figuratively blow your
socks off with their super catchy pop-
rock, hard hitting video game inspired
metal and ultra fun electronica. There
will be dancing, there will be screaming
and there will be reason to engage in
some serious air guitar. Also, there will
be men in spandex pants and tank tops.
