Highlights

  • Instruments carved from Greenlandic ice, performed at the edge of the most productive glacier.
  • Natural ice amphitheatres with icefjord views.
  • Instruments melt as played — each performance sonically unique.
  • Most dramatic concert backdrop on Earth.
  • Combines music, Arctic science, and Inuit culture.

Planning Steps

  1. Book through Ice Music Festival Greenland website or Arctic travel operators.
  2. Fly to Ilulissat via Copenhagen and Kangerlussuaq, or via Reykjavik.
  3. Book accommodation in Ilulissat well in advance — limited capacity.
  4. Dress for -15C or below. Some concerts may be outdoors near the icefjord.
  5. Arrive 1-2 days early to explore the UNESCO-listed Ilulissat Icefjord.
Pro tip

Bring a thermal seat pad for outdoor concerts. Sitting on ice drains heat fast.
