Festival state of mind

One of the best events in Harstad is the hosting of the Arts Festival of Northern Norway in the middle/end of June. Here you can visit galleries, taste local world class food, listen to top musicians, dance to the rhythms of drums as well as overlooking the Fjord and the archipelago.

Make sure to book your accommodation in advance as this festival attracts people from the whole world!

Other festivals as Hinnøy Festival in June and the Backyard Music Festival can brag with well-known stars as Anastacia, Violet Road, Madcon, Marit Larsen and many more!

For history lovers and Viking agers – The Viking Festival at Trondenes Historical Centre takes place each early autumn. Here you can dress up as a Viking, let the children learn about the Viking History, visit an arts and craft fair with Viking products and much more!
