Entry to the Thrilling Icelandic Lava Show with Real Molten Lava Pouring in Vik

Get close to real lava and try something exhilarating and different on this unique lava and volcano activity show. Iceland is one of the most active volcanic landscape on the planet with over 30 active volcano systems and a volcano eruption every 3-5 years on average.

Despite this, most of the eruptions are not accessible, either because of toxic gasses or because they take place below the massive ice caps of the Icelandic glaciers. But now, for the first time in history, it is possible to get the extraordinary close-up experience of a volcanic eruption, without any risk involved.

By pouring molten lava, over 1100 degrees Celsius (2000°F), into a showroom full of people, Icelandic Lava show has managed to recreate a miniature volcano eruption. It is the first show of its kind in the world and the only place on Earth where you can safely experience real lava in action in such close proximity.

The show is entertaining from beginning to end. After the host has greeted you, the show starts with a short educational video that explains Icelandic volcanism. It tells a truly dramatic story of eruptions in Iceland, and about the 1918 Katla eruption, but Katla is considered one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world.

Then it is time for the highlight of the show. The lights dim, and the rumbling sounds roar as the red-hot lava starts flowing into the showroom. The sensory onslaught is very powerful. Seeing the vibrant colours of the flowing lava, hearing it sizzling, smelling the melting minerals and feeling the intense heat is an indescribable sensation. It is simply something that you must experience yourself to fully understand.

Icelandic Lava Show is located in Vík on the South Coast of Iceland, surrounded by volcanoes, glaciers and black sand beaches. It is situated in the heart of Vík in a newly renovated house that is both modern and cosy and has been specifically adjusted for the lava show.

There is also an excellent restaurant here that offers a variety of delicious soups, salads and paninis, with both vegan and vegetarian options available. And of course, there is free Wi-Fi.

Do not miss this unforgettable and unique show, and grab the opportunity to see a volcanic eruption up close. Check availability by choosing a date.
