Landsmót 2024 in Reykjavík

July 1 @ 8:00 am – July 7 @ 5:00 pm UTC+0

Preparations have begun for the National Icelandic Horse Competition Landsmót 2024 which will be held 1st to 7th July 2024 at Fákur in Reykjavík.

Landsmót 2024 in Reykjavík will be the 25th in a row. From the beginning, since Landsmót was first held at Þingvellir, the tournament has been one of the largest sporting events in the country.

The tournament has grown enormously in scope, especially in terms of the competition part and the number of horses. It is interesting, however, that at the first Landsmót for horsemen at Þingvellir in 1950, about 10,000 guests attended the tournament. An attendance record was set at Rangárbakkar in 2008, where nearly 14,000 people gathered.
