For the first time in history, the Arctic regions competed in a song competition similar to Eurovision. The host for the first edition was the town of Vadsø (Northern Norway) and it was won by Greenland. Under the name “Pan Artic Vision”, the new initiative wants to bring together people across the arctic, both indigenous and non-indigenous, to sing together and build Pan-Arctic identity and community together.
- 10 Arctic communities participated in the first edition. Sápmi / Northern Finland; Alaska, USA; Yukon, Canada; Greenland; Island; Faroe Islands; Sápmi / Troms,Finnmark, Norway and artists from the Russian Arctic in exile.
- You can watch the whole competition here. It’s worth it.
