Bonfires in Reykjavik - Map and location

Reykjavik is famous for its bonfires on New Year's Eve.

A dosen or so bonfires are lit up around 20:00 in the evening. Two hours later everyone leaves for home to watch Áramótaskaup on tv. This is a comedy show that makes fun of things that happened in Iceland during the year. Around 23:30 the firework display starts and lasts for about one hour.

But where are the bonfires?

A map is published every year in a Pdf-file but the bonfires are generally always in the same place.

Here's a map from last year.
