The Northern Lights in Iceland: Natural enchantment

Winter in Iceland involves limited daylight and extended nights. The benefit of that is ample viewing time to see the Northern Lights, which occur between September and April. While you’re there, you can stay away from the city, in a rural hotel, which might have a wakeup call when the lights appear. PLAY’s latest offer makes getting there easy.

It's not guaranteed you'll him play even if you have a ticket. He could be rested or suffer an injury during warm-ups. But the stage seemed to be set for him to play on July 12th.
