Agents prepare for the BIG BANG music festival
The BIG BANG Festival is a magical music festival for young audiences, held on the first day of summer. The festival's agents play a key role in the event and recently gathered to prepare for the big day.
This year's BIG BANG Festival takes place at the Reykjavík City Library in Gerðuberg and Sigursvein's Music School in Hraunberg, Breiðholt, on the first day of summer — April 23, 2026, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The festival aims to broaden children's access to music.
Essential agents
The agents are a group of nine children between the ages of 10 and 12, drawn from neighborhoods across the city. They play a vital role at the BIG BANG Festival, welcoming guests as they arrive at the event. They introduce performances and events, interview musicians, and play a major role in creating an unforgettable atmosphere throughout the day.
The program features a diverse mix of music, workshops, and installations. All events are free.
Everyone is welcome.
