Northern Norway is known for it´s rough and varied climate. The landscape changes from alpine mountains and narrow fjords, with thriving coastal communities, to endless tundra and wilderness.

Hammerfest is situated on the island of Kvaløya and offers an untouched countryside, exciting history and open landscapes. Hammerfest is Norways northernmost town and covers an area of about 844 km2. 

Dansearena nord is a competence- and network centre for dance in Northern Norway. Studio and administration is housed in the Arctic Cultural Centre in Hammerfest. Artist-in-residence is an important part of the activities.
