​*What is the Airwaves Plus fund?

Iceland Airwaves has been an integral part of many artist’s early steps in their careers, giving them a platform to perform before industry, media and fans from the around the world.

Iceland Airwaves wants to to support directly emerging showcase Icelandic Artists beyond the festival itself.

3 bands will be given an equal share of the fund towards the next steps in their career  – studio time, travel, recording, promotion.

• 1 band will be chosen by Iceland Airwaves.
• 1 band will be selected by a committee of local and international industry experts.
• 1 band will be voted for by public vote.

The winners will be announced after Iceland Airwaves 2019 and will be invited to return to Iceland Airwaves 2020.
