The peak of the summer solstice is an incredibly special time to visit Iceland, when the midnight sun lights up its thrilling terrain of hot springs, mud pots, geysers and glaciers. At the fifh annual Secret Solstice festival, which will take place 21–24 June, as well as dancing to acts such as Rita Ora, Robert Plant and Patti Smith, and partying at late-night DJ sets on a boat, you can attend a genuinely underground rave – in a 5,000-year-old lava tunnel. Can’t be there? Keep the lights on all night and watch online, instead (secretsolstice.is).
