Happy In Fargo 12-17-25
Oh wow, it's already Wednesday. Hitting your inboxes a little later than normal.

There likely won’t be a Happy In Fargo next week, but you can always find things to do by looking at the CVB and DCP calendars (links below), as well as a basic scroll through Facebook Events.
So Many Activities!
Check out the calendars for Brewhalla, Unglued and The 1889 for events & workshops. Some sell out early, so look at them well in advance. The Fargo Moorhead CVB and Downtown Community Partnership are also great events calendar resources and they list many more activities than you’ll find here.
