The IceMusic Festival, Geilo – where aesthetics, music and nature melt together.


The Ice Music Festival is a festival where the stage and venue is buildt exlusively by snow 

and ice. All the instruments and decorations are all made of ice from the local area. 

The IceMusic Festival is a unique, artistic and musical project arranged every January at 

the first full moon of the year. This festival is an ovation to the nature, and to one of the 

most important recourses in the world - water. 

Frozen water.

 

The festival venue is located near Geilotjødnet at Kikut, 4 km south of Geilo. All premises 

are made by the nature, and with the majestic mountain landscape of Hallingdal as it's 

surrounding scenery. The weather is essential for the Ice Music Festival. The quality of the 

ice depends on the winter conditions and the sound of it vary as the temperature differs. 

Therefore, every concert is a unique experience. The festival is in the mercy of the nature 

where the moon decides the time and the weather decides the music.

 

The IceMusic Festival gathers different artistic expressions which all have a connection to ice. 

Jewelery, photos, architecture, dance, art, photo, design, sculptures and music. Different 

expressions melt together. 


The IceMusic Festival is a meeting point for artists and audience to experiment, develop and to be inspired.


We are all together. Expect the unexpected. The moment is now!
