experienced lava flows since the Elli冒a谩rdalur lava field was formed some 4800 years ago and is now witnessing it for the first time. This has been made possible using technology, and clever engineering and guests can now experience this unique spectacle by visiting the Lava Show in the centre of Reykjavik.</p> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> <iframe loading="lazy" title="LavaShow PR launch EN-sub" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/en8y23-WiJM?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div></figure> <p>The show opened its doors in Reykjav铆k on the 10th of November of this year. This unique Lava Show, the first of its kind in the world, has been extremely popular since its original opening in V铆k on the South Coast of Iceland in 2018. This unique experience allows everyone to get close to natural molten Lava in a safe and controlled environment.</p> <p>The husband and wife team were inspired by the volcanic eruption at Fimmv枚r冒uh谩ls that they witnessed in the spring of 2010 and its incredible 200m (600 feet) high lava fall and the idea of bringing Lava close to those wanting to experience it and since opening in V铆k, it has been a dream for the couple to branch out and open an additional exhibition in Reykjav铆k.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img title="J煤l铆us Ingi and Ragnhildur Lava Show Iceland | IceNews - Daily News" decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="700" height="467" src="https://www.icenews.is/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Julius-Ingi-and-Ragnhildur-LavaShow-700x467.jpg" alt="J煤l铆us Ingi and Ragnhildur Lava Show Iceland" class="wp-image-52208" srcset="https://www.icenews.is/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Julius-Ingi-and-Ragnhildur-LavaShow-700x467.jpg 700w, https://www.icenews.is/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Julius-Ingi-and-Ragnhildur-LavaShow-450x300.jpg 450w, https://www.icenews.is/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Julius-Ingi-and-Ragnhildur-LavaShow-320x213.jpg 320w, https://www.icenews.is/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Julius-Ingi-and-Ragnhildur-LavaShow-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.icenews.is/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Julius-Ingi-and-Ragnhildur-LavaShow-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://www.icenews.is/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Julius-Ingi-and-Ragnhildur-LavaShow-2048x1365.jpg 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /><figcaption>J煤l铆us Ingi and Ragnhildur 脕g煤std贸tti Co Founders of the Lava Show</figcaption></figure> <p>“Witnessing the eruption was unforgettable. We immediately started thinking about how we could recreate this experience in a safe environment and make it available to as many people as possible,” says J煤l铆us Ingi J贸nsson, who co-founded the Lava Show with his wife Ragnhildur 脕g煤std贸ttir. He continues, “It took us a while to figure out how, and it wasn’t until 2018 that we finally opened the Lava Show in V铆k.”</p> <p>“We now have a showroom in V铆k and Reykjav铆k; two Lava Shows that are independent but work great together. We are thrilled to bring this remarkable display of molten Lava to the capital of Iceland,” says Ragnhildur.</p> <p>For those wanting to visit the new Lava Show’s experience, you can see Fiskisl贸冒 73
