The optional Relax & Write two-day extension gives you free time to take additional tours, walk through town, shop for souvenirs, or write in a local café. The group will gather in the evenings for dinner together. At the second dinner we’ll have an open mic night where you’ll have an opportunity (if you wish) to share some of your work with your fellow participants.
The Relax & Write Extension is ISK 47,000 in 2025.
If you wish to attend with a partner and/or stay for the extension, we will send you a separate link to pay the extra cost.
It is also possible to book two additional nights' accommodation at the same conference rate (limited availability).

Non-participating partners can attend all the events (one day tour, receptions, welcome dinner, pub night, etc.) except the writing workshops and lunches on those two days.
