Atlantic Cup


An annual game between the champions of Iceland and the Faroe Islands, first held in 2002 as part of a deal between KSÍ (Knattspyrnusamband Íslands), FSF (Fótboltssamband Föroya) and FITUR (a tourism cooperation between the two countries). The game is played in the last week-end of April and the venue alternates between the Faroe Islands (even years) and Iceland (odd years). Atlantic Airways from Faroe Islands are the sponsors.
