The church is simply beautiful with high ceilings and timber details. The musicians were very talented, using a variety of instruments, performing a variety of pieces from a variety of genres. We enjoyed this experience very much

the musicians and soloist were excellent the music was very subdued we were just arriving that day to tromso and it was a good reason to brave the cold and rainy weather

Highly recommended for anyone looking for an amazing night. The only downside is that it goes super quick!

Concert was so emotionally moving it will stay in our memory forever. We felt we started to get to know Norwegian culture. We’re so glad we went on a stunning snowy night as it added to the magical experience.

First time the event coordinator was unaware of our tickets and denied us entry. Zero signs telling you that the concert was happening and which door to use. They placed a sign directly in front of the door as if they were closed. It was a tad stoic at times, as if you shouldn't be there
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. As always, the concert took place in the yellow wooden church in the city centre. If you would like to tell us a little more about your experience, please get in touch with us. Best regards, Best Arctic

Beautiful music in such a lovely location. Would have loved it to have gone for a little longer than the 30mins but thoroughly enjoyed every second.

Beautiful church setting and wonderful performers. I thoroughly enjoyed this very much! Loved the different pieces of much and the singer had a captivating voice!
STEVEN_A, Mar 2025
This was a great ending to our week in Tromso. The young woman singing had a beautiful voice. The organist/pianist and oboe/saxophone players were excellent and really filled the Cathedral with harmony.
Debra_T, Mar 2025
Beautiful music in a beautiful church. Lovely concert with talented musicians. Peaceful. Would recommend.
Jade_T, Jan 2025
Midnight concert but you have to be there at 10:45. Ensures good seating. Decided to do this concert on my first night in Tromso and it was everything I imagined and more. The singer had a beautiful, soprano voice, and the sax player and pianist, who accompanied her were amazing, as well. The concert was very relaxing and actually got me a bit emotional. The acoustics in the cathedral were amazing. The entire concert lasted about 30 minutes. I highly recommend this concert to anyone who loves music.
Saffron_M, Dec 2024
Incredible experience. So so talented! Such a beautiful setting and fantastic acoustics, very atmospheric and moving. We had a mixture of Christmas Carols, mostly scandi which were beautiful bur also some English/French/German. I’d highly recommend, great price too!

The concert was really beautiful, and the artists were fantastic! The church is so nice; making the moment magic.
Veronique_O, Jan 2024
Very nice concert and great to experience it in an historic monument.
I liked the fact that the singers and musicians stated to perform in different area of the cathedral, to have this sound effect.
The concert was quite short though. and we had no introduction on the music played (background on the pieces of artist).

Get involved in the great performance. Allow enough time, even the encore may receive attention.

The concert in the beautiful yellow cathedral in Tromsø lasted less than an hour and was wonderful! A singer, a lady at the piano and a saxophone player have taken us with great emotion into your Nordic history. Goose bumps and tears in the eyes included! I can heartily recommend this concert.

Completely different than expected.
I was thinking of playing the organ.
It was much better.
Piano, saxophones and hammer baritone.
The encore was for me the perfect Hammer old long syne....

Was a very nice mood for the Christmas season. The singer had a crystal clear and very powerful beautiful voice.
The two musicians rounded it off wonderfully. Bravo to all three!
