Arctic Fest is a biennial community-wide festival that takes place in Fairbanks, �ֻ�ֱ��. The festival focuses on environmental-change research, innovation, and solutions in the circumpolar North combining the arts, sciences, and Indigenous cultural and knowledge systems. Arctic Fest is co-organized by UAF together with community-based partner organizations.

Arctic Fest 2024 will be held from Sept. 5-7, 2024.

The first ever Arctic Fest was held in September 2022 and featured art-science and Indigenous art exhibits, scientific research, workshops, tours, a live performance by Inuit soul band Pamyua, panel discussions, presentations, a puppet parade, and more.
