The mission of FIKA(S) is to provide exposure to the Nordic way of life by sharing music, cinema, gastronomy as well as other distinctive cultural traits from the Nordic Region. The goal of FIKA(S) is to create bridges between Nordic cultures and Canadians by offering intimate and unifying cultural and artistic events.
The name FIKA(S) is a French acronym for ‘Festival Immersif de Kultur et d’Art Scandinave/Nordique’. It is inspired by the Swedish word fika, which refers to the coffee break, snack time, and specifically the opportunity to participate in a unique moment, or encounter with peers.
