The national day of culture in Reykjavik will be on Saturday, the 17th of August, and Kimono will be adding to the wide range of entertainment that will be offered in the downtown area.

The first of their shows takes place at the Jón Loftsson (JL) house on Hringbraut (by Nóatún) at five o'clock in the afternoon. The show is being organized by students of the Icelandic Academy of the Arts and will continue until seven in the evening with different musical accompaniment every hour. Works of art other than Kimono will be on display and the house opens at three.

Kimono will then make a brief appearance at Sirkús on Klapparstigur at 19:30 as part of a mammoth show running until eleven in the evening. Following this, there will be four other bands including Singapore Sling, Fídel, Stjörnukisi and Rúnk.

At 20:00, Kimono will play at the Meistari Jakob Gallery on Skólavörðustigur. Úlpa, Nattfari and Stolið will also be playing. The show at the gallery was a great success during Menningarnótt last year and promises to be as entertaining this time around.
