What to expect

Situated in the heart of Reykjavík, the Lava Show provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness Iceland’s raw volcanic power up close. You'll be captivated as real molten lava, heated to an astounding 1.100°C, flows right before your eyes, offering an immersive experience that is truly unparalleled.

Feel the warmth radiating from the lava, listen to its sizzle, and watch it glow under the guidance of expert Lava Masters. They will lead you on a journey through Iceland’s fiery geology, helping you understand how volcanic eruptions have shaped not only the country's landscapes but also its culture and history. This award-winning attraction has been recognised for its uniqueness and educational value. After the experience, unwind in the cosy reception area with a warm cup of coffee, fresh tea, or hot chocolate on colder days. If you prefer something stronger, an ice-cold local beer or a pre-mixed cocktail is available.

To cater to different preferences, two experiences are offered. The Classic Experience is a spectacular live lava demonstration suitable for all ages, making it a great choice for families. For those seeking something more exclusive, the Premium Experience offers access to a VIP area, pre-show refreshments, prime viewing from a hot-zone balcony, an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour, and a special lava souvenir to remember this extraordinary encounter.

What to remember

Accessibility:

  • The venue is wheelchair accessible. Please let Lava Show know in advance if you require wheelchair seating. Find the contact information on the voucher you'll receive after booking

Not allowed:

  • Food

Know in advance:

  • Free parking is available directly at the Lava Show facility

  • Seating is not assigned and is available on a first-come, first-served basis
  • For safety reasons, all babies need to be seated on the third row, near an exit
  • Once the lava pours into the showroom, it gets hot. It is advised to remove some outer layers of clothing at the beginning of the show
  • The lava contains no volcanic gases, so it is completely safe to breathe in the showroom at all times
  • You are welcome to take photos and short videos during the show, but please turn off your flash as it both disturbs the other guests and the show master, and actually turns the colour of the lava purple in pictures

TUI Southern Iceland Tour

If you want to escape the city and see a bit more of Iceland, this trip is ideal. It introduces you to the country's south coast, where thundering waterfalls, snow-topped volcanoes and a stark coastline lie ready and waiting.You'll make a couple of stops at the area's biggest waterfalls, Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss, where you'll have enough time to take some photos. Eyjafjallajökull is part of the line-up, too.The volcano that erupted back in 2010 is a picture of serenity these days, sleeping soundly beneath a huge sheet of ice and snow. The real highlight of the day, though, is Vik. This huge beach is covered in black pebbles, and boasts weird and wonderful basalt rock formations.
