With Máret Ánne Sara’s historic exhibition at Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall, Sámi art steps into the global spotlight like never before.

Join us for an unforgettable evening of Christmas spirit with the wonderful Kajsa Balto at the Center for Northern Peoples on November 22 at 7:00 PM. 

The Sámi export office and agency, NANU – Sámi Arts International, is now established!

We're back in the office after the summer break and we're more than ready for a new festival year!

When this year’s festival concluded in the early hours of Sunday July 13, a total of 6,149 people had visited our festival.

We’re lucky to have warm and sunny days during the first part of our festival. While we’re thoroughly enjoying the nice weather, it also means that the water level in the river near the festival area has risen.

This year’s Indigenous festival offers everything from heavy joik and Greenlandic reggae to Northern Norwegian rap and Sami political debates. Along with a one-of-a-kind commissioned work that hits right at the heart of global politics.

We are excited to announce that we’ve strengthened our team with Ann Cecilie Hætta as our new festival producer. Ann Cecilie is a new face at Riddu Riđđu, and we’re truly looking forward to having her on board!

Riddu Riđđu Festivála and the Center for Northern People will award the Buošši Prize during this year’s Riddu Riđđu Festival.

A brand-new commissioned piece just for our young ones!

ElleMina Kuoljok Baer (25) from Jokkmokk has been named “Young Artist of the Year” by Riddu Riđđu.

Riddu Riđđu invites Sámi filmmakers and Indigenous filmmakers to submit films to the festival's short film program.
