- Richard BratbySeptember 7, 2013With one of the world's top 10 economies, Britain cuts arts funding. Facing total financial ruin, Iceland built this stunning performance venue. I know which future generations will appreciate more.
- Julie LOctober 2, 2016Breathtaking landmark in the port. Worth a visit during the day and by night when the outside is illuminated - to mimic northem lights. The visit of the building is free and it's open till late.
- Jenny KJune 24, 2015The behind the scenes tour and 360 movie are a great way to visit Harpa without committing to a formal ticket. The tour is a must for anyone who likes architecture and/or music!Upvoted 2 weeks ago
- Michael FuchsNovember 6, 2018Try to see it from different angles and go inside to not miss the just as spectacular view. It‘s highly recommended to pass by architect Olafur Eliasson‘s Reykjavik studio at Marshallhúsið.
- Aylin AlpustunAugust 1, 2022It is without a doubt a jewel, more like a sculpture than a concert hall where the mountains meet the sea. There is a great restaurant inside and is sublime even just to read with a glass of wine

- Beau HarbinAugust 1, 2014Behind Harpa on the back pier, you can catch a boat to Videy island. Well worth the trip.
