Solon

Most party goers know Solon as a weekend party place with DJ's and wild dancing. On top of that, it's a cafe, bistro, restaurant and bar. Depending on the time of day, you can drop in for the perfect cup of coffee, a drink or a dinner, and then stay for the music and dancing.

Bars & Nightlife

Walking through the Reykjavík city centre during the day, and doing the same after hours when the party is well under way, are two completely different experiences. Reykjavík is well known for its vibrant nightlife, with trendy bars and clubs open until the early hours of the morning. Whether you are interested in listening to live music or dancing the night away, you are sure to find something to your liking. Bars & Clubs — The distinction between cafes, pubs, bars and clubs is far from clear in Reykjavík, with many daytime cafes turning into tightly packed bars and clubs as the night goes on. Many are open until late (five in the morning) and it is not uncommon to spend all night in town on Friday and Saturday nights. Most bars and clubs are in the compact downtown area which makes it easy to test many different places. Live Music — Reykjavík has a very eclectic music scene which goes far beyond what you might have heard about Björk and Sigur Rós. The scene is made up of a large number of genres, with everything from hardcore punk rock and indie to chamber music and hip-hop. You can take in a concert almost every night of the week.
