Learn Who's Behind the Icelandic Yule Lads Site

Sharing Icelandic Folklore

We at Uniquely Iceland created the Icelandic Yule Lads website because we wanted to share one of our favorite parts of Icelandic holiday traditions. The Yule Lads are such fun and quirky characters, and we thought they deserved their own space where people could learn about their unique personalities and the folklore behind them. It’s a chance for us to let others enjoy the magic of Iceland’s Christmas season, just like we do. This site is an extension of our passion for sharing Iceland’s culture with the world, and we hope it brings a little festive joy to everyone who visits.
