Concerts

The historic community hall Stapi is the largest venue in Hljómahöll and offers a wide range of possibilities for events.

The hall can accommodate up to 800 guests for concerts, including 700 standing on the main floor and 100 seated in the balcony. For dance events, the capacity increases to 897 guests by extending the hall and opening into the Merkines hall. Stapi also offers 445 seats in a theatre setup, with just over 100 of these located in the balcony. For seated dining, the hall can accommodate up to 450 guests, with the space extended into the Merkines hall to increase capacity.

Stapi is therefore ideal for large gatherings, whether meetings, conferences, concerts, corporate events, or celebrations, offering flexible options and excellent facilities for guests.
