Radiohead To Headline Iceland’s Secret Solstice

in Live,News

Radiohead will headline the festival with 32 acts signed including Róisín Murphy, Afrika Bambaataa, Kelela, and Action Bronson from abroad, plus Icelandic artists Bang Gang, Mammút, Fufanu, Rix, Faces Of Walls, and many others.

Secret Solstice is set for June 17th-19th, 2016, in the center of Iceland’s capital city Reykjavík. Held over the summer solstice weekend, in Iceland this means three full days of never-ending daylight due to the close proximity to the Arctic Circle, which has wowed visitors from all over the world for the past three years.

Radiohead’s last release was their rejected theme for the James Bond ‘Spectre’ movie.
