About Salabókun
We make it simple to find the right space for life's big moments.
Salabókun is an Icelandic marketplace for celebration and meeting venues, for private occasions and smaller company events, anywhere in the country.
Finding a venue in Iceland shouldn't be a hassle.
Weddings, confirmations, milestone birthdays, staff parties: the big moments call for the right space. But finding one meant phone calls, emails back and forth, and uncertainty about the price right up to the last minute.
Salabókun gathers venues in one place: search, compare, see the price instantly and book by card. Hosts get a simple tool to list their space and take bookings, with no middlemen and no needless friction.
The idea
Where moments come to life.
A marketplace for celebration and meeting venues, anywhere in the country, for 10 to 150 people.
One marketplace, two audiences
The same venues serve both private occasions and smaller company events.
Smaller company events
One-off occasions that need a room today or this week, not a fixed contract.
- Meetings
- Workshops
- Staff parties
- Launches
