Katuarpalaaq

For the second time, Katuaq organizes the drum dance festival Katuarpalaaq.
Katuarpalaaq is a festival with the traditional Inuit drum at its center. The Inuit peoples share a strong cultural heritage across national borders, and it is important to explore and share this cultural heritage together.

The purpose of Katuarpalaaq is to share and convey knowledge and stories through traditional dance and song. The traditions of the Inuit peoples contain both similarities and differences, which are exciting to explore. In some regions, the old traditions are more widespread and actively used than in others, and in West Greenland there has been a significant increase in the use of drum dance in recent years.
