The holiday of the North is the main event for winter sports that takes place in the beginning of spring in the Murmansk region.
The first holiday of the North was held on March 30 in 1934. The specificity of this celebration was that only skiers took part in the competition. At that time, the contestants were not enough, but the popularization of the holiday led to a significant increase in the number of those who wished.
The organizers of the event agreed at the time that the sports program should be mixed with military training. Therefore, additional contests for shooting are still included in the plan of the celebration. Even the war could not affect the Russian traditions. The festival of the North continued in the same spirit, the athletes were so enthusiastic that they went to the competitions directly from the front.
After the end of terrible fascist actions in the territory of the Soviet Union, the festival gained double turns. Organizers developed new concepts that could attract more young audience, since at the dawn of sports competitions the age of participants began from thirty years. In 1961 an additional program was introduced, which opened up new opportunities for schoolchildren and students. Organizers took care of honesty and created a separate category of participants, which was separated from adults, professional athletes. It was a junior group, which was specially trained before the competitions. 1962 was marked by the fact that the list of competitions added hockey with a puck. By that time the Festival of the North already had a full complex program, in which representatives of any winter sport could take part.
1971 was no less significant for this celebration. The holiday of the North came to the world level and gathered at the events a lot of foreign representatives of winter sports games. They were participants from Bulgaria, Hungary, the United States, Korea, etc.
Also in the same year the first parachutists' competitions were included in the program, and already closer to 1974, biathlon competitions began. Since 1984, the holidays of the peoples of the north begin with a grand opening ceremony, the idea was borrowed from the Olympic Games.
Every decade brought its changes in this celebration. If we consider the beginning of the two thousand years, then from this period, extreme sports began to prevail: climbing, kiting and windsurfing. In the future, other varieties were added: football in the snow, competitions for avid fishermen for throwing fishing rods. It should be noted that from year to year people themselves offer innovations and add diversity to the holiday of the North. Murmansk constantly receives guests who came to participate in sports competitions. For increased comfort, the event was moved far beyond the city itself, to the forest valley of the Uyuta Valley. This is a powerful sports complex, where all conditions for a sporting event are created. But still the organizers do not stop at one single place in the region and try to find new alternatives for a big holiday.
One of the highlights of this remarkable sporting event is the marathon, which unites several states at once. The name speaks for itself - "Ski Track of Friendship". Competitions of this kind appeared relatively recently, after 1994. This is a ski race that takes place on the territory of several states - Russia, Norway and Finland. The most important thing is that you do not need to bother with the documents for participation. Even if you are a foreigner, then without any problems you can take part without a passport.
Each year of the competition makes the history of the competition and opens up new opportunities for participants. For so many years of the event, there have been many interesting events.
