In 2022 Islendingadagurinn looks forward to celebrating Icelandic culture and heritage in-person and through a series of virtual, hybrid events.

• Icelandic Culture and Heritage watch Viking re-enactors battle it out and learn about the Old Norse way of life. Enjoy Icelandic food, beverages, meet cultural partners, dignitaries and view beautiful traditional Icelandic costumes, and more.
• Music and Entertainment enjoy live music from Canadian and Icelandic musicians by the harbour, in the park, even on the rooftop – all weekend long. Watch participants get islendingadunked into Lake Winnipeg and earn your honorary Icelander status at Get Dinged. Enjoy the weekend midway and evening fireworks.
• Sports and Rec burn off the weekend calories at our annual running race events or play a leisurely game of Fris-Nok in the park. Bring the whole family to compete in the family sports competitions.
• Play and Stay shop a variety of food and craft vendors and official festival souvenirs. Stay the weekend in beautiful Gimli and attend the annual parade – the largest in Manitoba!
