It’s coming up faster than you think – one of the biggest and funnest festivals in North Dakota! This year will be the 40th year it’s been held and it’s going to be huge. If you haven’t been to this festival before then September of 2017 will be your chance to experience “pure Scandimonium.” You don’t want to miss it, and here’s why:
Norsk Høstfest is a huge festival held in Minot, North Dakota annually. In 2017 it will be held on September 27-30.
The name of the game is everything Scandinavian, which many North Dakotans are descended from. From the vikings to today, there is a bit of everything from all of the countries.
You can watch the food be prepared in traditional ways and enjoy the tasty outcome! There are even classes and activities that you can do yourself. The festival also has food competitions such as the Lefse Masters Competition.
