Iceland Noir 2025
November 12th-15th
Welcome to ICELAND NOIR -
A literary festival celebrating creativity across genres and storytelling mediums.
|
Iceland Noir is back for 2025, from Wednesday 12 to Saturday 15 November. The literary festival is held in various venues across the city center of Iceland’s capital, Reykjavík.
Living at the edge of the Arctic Circle, in a country famous for its wild weather, active volcanoes and stunning moon-like landscapes, Icelanders have developed a unique relationship with literature and storytelling, as well as developing a seemingly endless capacity for creativity. The Iceland Noir literary festival celebrates that creativity across genres and storytelling mediums. A festival pass ticket to Iceland Noir covers entry to all events and venues across the four days of the festival and includes exclusive access to the private members club, Kjarval, for its duration. The schedule includes local and foreign authors, many that you may have read and others you will want to read following their events. In addition, panels and interviews include representatives from film and television as well as poets and translators. A literary feast not to be missed.
