The 2021 Iceland Writers Retreat and Iceland Readers Retreat will be virtual, allowing you to take part from anywhere in the world. We’ll have:

• Twenty-seven live, interactive workshops with many of our most highly reviewed faculty of the previous seven years.
• Q&A panel(s) for the opportunity to ask your favourite writers about what you’ve always wanted to know.
• A virtual “book club” with authors discussing some of their own works.
• Iceland at your doorstep: Panels, readings and fun events that showcase literary Iceland.

Our specific schedule will be posted here soon. Classes will run live from 3 p.m. – 9 p.m. GMT on April 29, April 30, and May 1. We hope to allow people to watch them later for a limited time.

Anyone is welcome to sign up. Participants have access to all the workshops that are offered (though there will be three running simultaneously), as well as the other events, which will include at least one lecture or panel with Icelandic authors and two Q&A panels with some of the 2021 faculty. The registration fee is ISK 30,000 (about $235 US. There is a currency calculator by the registration link).
