DirectRooms.com – Blues lovers head to Iceland for Reykjavik Blues Festival

One of the best kept secrets on the Blues and Gospel travel trail is becoming better known each year, attracting more and more aficionados of this iconic musical style to the spring vistas of Iceland for the Reykjavik Blues Festival.

This celebration of all things blues and gospel brings lovers of mood music from all over the icy country as well as seeing Reykjavik Airport crowded with arrivals from across Europe and America for the eagerly-awaited once-a-year event. Reykjavik is a comparatively small city, so those aiming to attend should consider booking accommodation in advance as recommended by online hotel booking site DirectRooms.

This year’s event is slated to run between 16 and 21 April, with the line-up of performers not yet announced, but sure to include well-known names in gospel and blues arriving from near and far as well as local groups in both sectors. Reykjavik Airport Hotels (http://directrooms.com/iceland/hotels/reykjavik-hotels/airport-price1.htm) are expected to be full to bursting between the festival dates, as they are the most modern and comfortable in the city.

The Reykjavik Blues Festival is a tradition in the city nowadays, offering a huge opening ceremony, a choice of events and a final concert at the historic Free Church of Iceland. In between the musical events there’s a great deal to see and do in this unique environment and plenty of opportunities for a vibrant nightlife.

According to Lek Boonlert, marketing head at DirectRooms, “This is one of those ‘don’t miss’ events, both for anyone who’s a fan of gospel and blues as well as jazz fans who’d like the chance to experience something different in a magical setting.”
