Lofoten Viking AS is proud to be the major sponsor for the Sjyrock Music Festival, held annually on our beautiful island of Værøy.
Sjyrock
means "ocean spray (or mist)" in English. The Festival is one of the
most remote and exotic music festivals held in the world - it's site is
an absolutely stunning location on the old Værøy airport - right beside
the ocean, against towering granite cliffs.

The Festival is held each year from 8th to 10th of July, in
the height of the northern summer - at the time when the Midnight Sun
is shining all night.
