“I feel like I could live in Uummannaq, it feels like a good town with good people in it.”
KT Tunstall, 1 Oct 2008

The most northerly settlement we visited during the Disko Bay 2008 expedition was Uummannaq, hometown of our Greenlandic guide Ludvig and home to 1400 people and 3000 howling dogs. This town will inspire Uummannaq evening at the Southbank Centre. Join Arctic voyagers Lemn Sissay, Quentin Cooper and myslef for an evening of Arctic stories and performances at Southbank Centre, guided by Ludvig. It’s worth it just to see Ludvig, the guy is a legend!
