RVKBear! More than a party!!
RVKBear is not just a bear weekend. It’s an intimate gathering where bears, chasers and admirers from all around the world get to meet the Icelandic community, through exclusive experiences for our event pass holders.
Whether it is soaking in our natural hot springs, experiencing the beautiful landscapes of Iceland, or dancing the night away, we make sure to bring a smile on your bear face and to help you meet new friends.
We are hard at work already planning RVKBear 2026. Some of the highlights in progress:
- See some of the amazing sites that Iceland has to offer on Golden Circle tour in the Grizzly Pass.
- Soak in luxury and commune with other bears, otters, and more in the newest spa, The Laugarás Lagoon in the Polar Pass.
- Want to stay closer to the city but still explore? The City Pass offers a trip to FlyOver Iceland and The Lava Show, two amazing experiences all within Reykjavik!
- Build your own experience with the Party Pass! Whether the Sky Lagoon or Blue lagoon, Brunch, or a fun t-shirt to remember your Rvk Bear adventure, you can choose your own experience and party the nights away.

Volcanic Activity in Iceland
Iceland is a land of fire and ice, and volcanic activity is simply part of our nature. Recently, we’ve seen multiple eruptions on the Reykjanes Peninsula, reminding us that the island is as alive beneath the surface as it is above!
While these eruptions have been localized and have not impacted daily life in ReykjavÃk or travel to and from Iceland, they have influenced some of our festival planning. As a precaution, we are not prioritizing the Blue Lagoon as our main lagoon visit this year.
Rest assured, Icelandic authorities are highly experienced in monitoring and managing volcanic activity, and the country remains well-prepared for such events. We are staying up to date with any developments and will always prioritize the safety and comfort of our guests.
