Building on the foundations of previous years, the Arctic Security Conference will be held for the third time in 2026. The conference brings together researchers, policymakers and practitioners for in-depth discussions on the underlying drivers shaping Arctic politics, with a specific focus on security.

The 2026 conference will place particular emphasis on the maritime domain. The programme will be published as it is finalised.

The main conference takes place on Wednesday, 16 September, with additional open and closed events organised the day before and the day after.

An updated programme will be published on the conference website.
