The festival is usually held on the first Wednesday of February, but for the past two years, it has been cancelled and its date moved due to the pandemic. As soon as public health authorities gave the green light for events at the start of 2022, the festival's organising committee was quick to find a new date, and cancelling it for a second year in a row was never an option. The organising committee consists of young people from Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur and staff from the town's youth clubs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Young people lay the groundwork and organise the event.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The festival was held at the Strandgata Sports Hall on Wednesday, 16th March. The young people themselves decided on the programme and theme of the festival. As such, they were responsible for, among other things, selecting the musicians, merchandise for the shop, promoting the event, and all other planning and execution. The chosen group is supported by the staff of the youth clubs in their work.\u00a0<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/undirbuningur-grunns-002.jpg\" alt=\"Preparation-basic-002-\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 960px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 960\/720;\" \/>\n<h4><strong>The theme this year was Fire and Ice.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>This year's theme was Fire and Ice. Every year, a competition is held between the primary schools' youth clubs for the best advert based on the theme, judged on its interpretation and whether all the important information is included.
