THE VISION
We’re looking forward
to seeing you
In March, more than
2,000 people from all
over the Arctic will gather
in Nuuk to take part in
the sport and cultural
events of AWG2016. It
will be Greenland’s
largest event ever

When you get here, the capital and its resi-
dents will be ready to welcome you.
Greenland is well known for its hospitality,
and we want everybody to have a wonderful
time here on the world’s biggest island. Our
hope is that you all will return home with un-
forgettable experiences to remember and to
tell others.
We look forward to meeting all the young
athletes who will represent their respective
countries and regions and who will compete
in the spirit of fair play that forms the basis
of the Arctic Winter Games. And we look
forward to experiencing all the cultural acti-
vities that make up an equally important part
of the Games.
All our volunteers, businesses and public
authorities are all hard at work making sure
that your time in Nuuk is memorable.
More than 1,000 volunteers took part
in our dress rehearsal on September 6, six
months before the AWG2016 opens. People
were enthusiastic about the big event, just as
they are eager to welcome the guests who
will visit our city.
As you probably know, there are no roads
between the cities in Greenland; all transport
must be done by plane or boat. But while
there are no trains or buses between cities, in
Nuuk we have buses that make it convenient
to travel around the city.
Your beds will be ready and there will be
plenty of food when you get here. Athletes from
all of the Arctic will arrive to Nuuk in the days
leading up to the games. Everyone will gather
in Nuuk for the opening ceremony on Sunday.
We look forward to having a fantastic
week together with our arctic friends. See
you in Nuuk.
