It’s the most wonderful time of the year as the Fargo Park District’s 32-foot-tall holiday tree at Broadway Square is lit for the season at an official Tree Lighting event on November 21 from 5:30 – 9:00 p.m.
The event will include remarks from Susan Faus, Interim Executive Director, Mayor Tim Mahoney, and Fargo Park Board President Joe Deutsch, a countdown to the lighting of the tree led by Santa and Mrs. Claus, horse-drawn carriage rides, live holiday music and sing-along carols, reindeer, s’mores kits and much more! Local food and beverage vendors will be on-site with for-purchase drinks and snacks.
Weather permitting, the SCHEELS Skating Rink and Skate Shack are set to open to the public the night of the tree lighting. Regular season hours are Monday-Friday from 4:00 – 9:00 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday from 12:00 – 9:00 p.m. and will begin on Wednesday, November 22 following the tree lighting and rink opening, weather dependent.
Broadway Square and the SCHEELS Skating Rink and Skate Shack are located at 201 Broadway in the heart of Downtown Fargo.
