The Vaccines, English Teacher, LYNKS and more confirmed to play Iceland Airwaves 2024 • Festivals • DIY Magazine

Iceland Airwaves has now unveiled the fourth wave of artists performing at this year’s festival, which is set to take place in Downtown Reykjavík on 7th - 9th November 2024.

Among the 12 new names announced are Izaro, Merina Gris, and Sila Lua - who will all be there as part of Airwaves’ partnership with the Spanish Embassy - as well as Stockholm quartet Dina Ögon, South African genre-benders The Joy, and Chicago R&B talent Ravyn Lenae.

They join a whole host of previously confirmed international favourites, including indie stalwarts The Vaccines, Leeds quartet English Teacher (who are currently on tour in support of their Top 10 debut album, ‘This Could Be Texas’), and alt-pop provocateur Lynks (who we recently caught up with for our March In Deep digital cover interview).

Also due to perform in Iceland’s capital this Autumn are Welsh electronic duo Overmono, Amsterdam collective Personal Trainer, punk forces-to-be-reckoned-with Lambrini Girls, and hotly-tipped newcomers MRCY. They join what was an already stacked first wave of artists, including bar italia, Opus Kink and more, as well as an impressive slate of buzzy Icelandic talent.

What’s more, the festival have also confirmed their first speakers for 2024’s conference programme, as well as revealing the music lineup’s day splits (which you can find on the Airwaves’ website).

This year’s iteration is shaping up to be a particularly special one too, as the festival celebrates its 25th anniversary. You can find out more and grab tickets for Iceland Airwaves 2024 here, and check out the latest wave of artists below.
