Their performance will be followed by a special appearance by local pop legend Páll Óskar.

Programming will continue throughout the week. The festival ends on Sunday, April 28 with a concert at Laugardalslaug pool.
The festival aims to promote cultural activities for and with children and young people, to raise awareness of youth-oriented events and culture and make children more visible in the cultural community.
