37th Framsókn Party Congress opened

Sigurður Ingi Jóhannsson, chair of Framsóknar, inaugurated the 37th Party Congress of Framsóknar with a ceremonial event at the Hilton Reykjavík Nordica this morning. The theme of the Party Congress is "The Rock in the Ocean".

There was a good turnout at the congress at its opening and even greater participation is expected later today when the party leader will deliver his keynote speech.
At the Party Congress, Framsókn members decide on the main policy of the party on national issues, establish the party's laws, and hold the supreme authority on its affairs.

Sigurður Ingi is celebrating his 62nd birthday today, so it was very fitting to begin the congress by singing the birthday song, as Framsókn members find few things more enjoyable than bursting into song.

We encourage you to follow our media today, both on Facebook and Instagram, as the speeches of the chair and the vice-chair will be live-streamed on visir.is on the Framsókn Facebook page.

Heartfelt congratulations on the day, Sigurður Ingi, and congratulations to all Framsókn members!
