IRSKIR DAGAR

Did you know that? The town of Akranes was founded by two Irish brothers with Norwegian blood, Þormóður and Ketill Bresasonir. To pay tribute to the origins of the town, Irish Days commemorates their Celtic heritage every year. On the programme: games, dance, beer, Irish flags everywhere, and the competition for the reddest Icelander! The whole city is celebrating, with of course the heart of the festivities in the city centre. It's also an opportunity for locals to get together with friends and family in a friendly atmosphere
