The International Arctic Forum "Arctic - Territory of Dialogue" will be held in Murmansk from 2027, according to an order signed by Russian prime minister Mikhail Mishustin.
In 2025, the forum was already held in Murmansk and gathered about 1.300 participants from 21 countries, as well as more than 230 business representatives.
Murmansk is the starting point of the Northern Sea Route and an important strategic territory for the development of the Russian Arctic. It produces about 6% of Russia's gross domestic product and about 10% of its exports.
