When Tromsø was chosen in 2016 as the city where the Arctic Council's Secretariat would be based, the city was referred to as The Arctic Capitol, and we then changed the name of the Opera Festival to Arctic Opera Festival. 2017 was our first festival under the new name, and we received a visit from the SIAA Foundation, who brought 8 up-and-coming opera talents. The opera association has made it possible for several big names to want to come to Tromsø. One of those who came to visit from SIAA, Alexandra Flood, fell so in love with Tromsø that she chose to come back in 2019 to give a concert during the Nordlysfestivalen in 2019. Lilly Jørstad also gave her first solo concert in Tromsø during the Arctic Operafestival in 2019 with Sergej Osadchuk on piano.
