Strætó service on Reykjavík Culture Night 2023

There will be some closed streets in the city center when Culture Night takes place there on Saturday. You have to pay a general fare on the bus and a night fare on the night bus, which starts around 1.00 a.m. but customers with 30 day and 1 year’s bus cards can use them on board Night buses.

Route 1:

  • will drive in 15 min. frequency from approx. at 7 – 10
  • will drive in 10 min. frequency from approx. at 10 – 18
  • will drive in 15 min. frequency from 18 – 22:30 (until transport from the city center begins)

Routes 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15:

  • will drive in 15 min. frequency from 7/8 – 18
  • will drive in 30 min. frequency from 18 – 22:30 (until transport from the city center begins)

Note that route 18 runs to and from HR instead of route 5 on Culture Night

You can see all stops on all routes this day in the timetables under August 19.

We ask customers to familiarize themselves with the Strætó schedule in the route planner and find a trip, before taking the bus on Culture Night, as trips times may be different than usual due to increased frequency and closed streets in the city. The route planner and timetables have been updated to the best of our ability, but since there are closures all over the city, the buses may have to take an unconventional route – Please look at the live map at Klappiðr on straeto.is.is

You can pay in four different ways in Strætó in the capital area, with:

  • Klapp ten
  • Refillable Klapp card
  • The app Klappið in your phone
  • Cash – Drivers don´t give change in the capital area
