Comedians born in Reykjavík

Reykjavík, the capital of Iceland, is the world's northernmost capital of a sovereign state, set on a windswept bay in the country's southwest. Compact yet cosmopolitan, it is Iceland's cultural and economic heart, dotted with landmarks such as the soaring Hallgrímskirkja church and the glass Harpa concert hall. Its creative scene punches well above the nation's tiny population. English-language and Icelandic stand-up comedy both feature in the city's nightlife, drawing local performers and touring international acts.
