The 2015 edition of the Ice Music Festival has just been announced. It will take place on February 5-8, in the breathtaking Geilo, Norway, and promises to beΒ unlike any music event you’ve been to before. Featuring a kick-ass line-up of musicians that play on ice instruments (yes!) and those who create these wonders, the festival has over the years set a new benchmark for putting together a unique and innovative event.
