OUR MISSION
Pink Iceland strives to be the country’s foremost travel agent, tour operator, event and wedding planner for LGBTQI travelers. Our goal is to always offer an exemplary service, treating our guests with the utmost respect while offering a good quality product.
Pink Iceland has clear policies regarding its responsibilities to environmental and humanitarian issues. These are reflected in the services on offer and the general attitude of the company’s owners and staff.
Pink Iceland is, and will remain a beautiful, vibrant, fun and caring place of work where both owners and staff ambitiously work towards offering outstanding services to its guests
HONESTY POLICY
Pink Iceland is a privately owned company and as such it needs to make a profit. This profit pays the salaries of its staff, the rent, the wonderful and informative Pink Iceland website not to mention copious amounts of coffee for the owners. Most of Pink Iceland's money is made through commissions. This is how it works: If our guests let us book their tours, activities, and accommodation we collect a small (usually 10-15%) commission of the price. This basically means that you pay the same price, regardless of whether you book directly - or through us. You may think this might cause us to recommend really expensive accommodation and tours. Not so. We promise to do our utmost to come up with a plan that suits you, and your budget. We would never recommend anything without full confidence and/or personal experience of what's on offer. Our primary goal is working with and for the LGBTQI community and without the community's support or goodwill we wouldn't have lasted six months in the business. It is not least through word of mouth that we grow stronger every day. Our hope is that after reading this you too will ask for our recommendations and advice and/or book your holiday through us.
HUMAN RIGHTS
Pink Iceland is founded on the belief that more can be done to welcome LGBTQI visitors to Iceland. We strive to to offer the best available services to our guests, working with suppliers who respect and adhere to human and civil rights.
We at Pink Iceland have committed ourselves to contributing to LGBTQI communities around the world in whatever way we can. This has been done with monetary donations, education about what we've achieved in this country and how we went about it and through on-going volunteer work for Samtökin'78 the national LGBTQI organization in Iceland as well as Reykjavik Pride Week where we offer our time and expertise for various events and causes. We constantly revise our policies, processes and activities and actively work towards implementing these. Our human rights commitments may often go unnoticed but when applicable we update our audience about the work we undertake through our social media outlets and website.

BUBBLY BONFIRE, FIREWORKS & PARTY TOUR
Celebrate New Year's Eve the Icelandic way!
BUBBLY BONFIRE
NEW
YEARS
EVE EXTRAVAGANZA!
Limited availability // We always sell out // Book early to avoid disappointment.
You haven't lived until you've experienced Reykjavík on New Years Eve. Pretty much every single person in the city takes a box full of fireworks outside just before midnight blow the old year to bits and then parties till the break of dawn. There is nothing quite like it. There really isn't.
NEW YEARS IN REYKJAVIK, PINK ICELAND STYLE
Thousands of people attend community bonfires scattered throughout the different neighborhoods in Reykjavík and we'll join one or two of them before heading downtown for group dinner at one of Iceland's best restaurant: KOL. By the time we eat there it's been more than a year since we made the reservation. That's how popular it is! After dinner we walk across the street to Hallgrímskirkja church and enjoy the fireworks.
Let's get serious for a moment: The Hallgrímskirkja grounds at midnight is a truly exciting spectacle, but we'll have to be careful. Fireworks are exploding all over the place and sometimes on the ground. If fireworks in close proximity scare you this is not be the best place to be at midnight. If, however, they excite and delight you, as they do us, there is not better place to spend midnight in Iceland! If you want we have some fireworks on hand, ideal for those wanting to blow the old year to bits in a symbolic way.
After the fireworks, we head to the legendary Pink Iceland house party with the Pink Iceland Team and their friends for a few drinks and mingling. You'll have access to a free self service bar as Pink Iceland guests. It's the perfect way to warm up for the dancefloor!
At around 1:30 am we'll head out to Kiki Queer Bar's New Years Eve Celebration. You'll be armed with a Pink Iceland Pass securing you free entry, queue jump and a free drink at the bar.
We look forward to celebrating the New Year with you!
Please remember to dress warmly - it can get cold up north :)
