The Hurtigruten Museum participated in the Arctic Run

08 June 2026

This weekend, the Arctic Run took place, and the Coastal Express Museum was a partner at the event. All the runners stopped by the museum during the morning to receive their numbers. The starting line itself was right outside our front door. More than 3000 people participated in the Arctic Run, and the party lastet all weekend. In the city center, anyone and everyone gathered, and there were stalls selling everything from Viking jewelry to oreo buns.

Of course, the Coastal Express Museum was also well represented here, and in our booth you got to buy cotton candy from the historic captain Richard With himself!
