Hljómey Xtra

Alþýðuhúsið, Westman Islands

Hljómey Xtra is a special event held on the Saturday night of the Hljómey weekend. It only happens when we find something unique that the Westman Islands rarely, or even never, get to experience. We can confirm that Hljómey Xtra will be held this year, 2027.

On stage in 2026

Jakob Frímann Magnússon

Jakob Frímann is a founding member of Stuðmenn and has for half a century been one of Iceland’s most colourful musicians: composer, keyboard player, filmmaker and the man behind Jack Magnet. In the 1980s he also played with the American band Bone Symphony.

At the first Hljómey Xtra, on Saturday night 25 April 2026, he filled Alþýðuhúsið with music, jokes and stories. Secret guests took the stage, and Jack Magnet, Hveitibjörn, Frímann the aviator and other curious characters dropped by.
