Top 10 Things to do in Fargo, North Dakota (ND)
For a weekend of fun and relaxation, you don't have far to go. North Dakota's largest city gained a certain measure of modern fame with its 1996 movie namesake. But Fargo is more than a city of friendly folks and flat accents. Local museums will please art lovers, children and baseball enthusiasts. After a family visit to the Red River Zoo, parents can unwind at local area lounges, many of which offer casino gaming. In Fargo's sister city of Moorhead, Minnesota, The Heritage Hjemkomst Interpretive Center has replicas of a Viking ship and a Norwegian Stave church. Back in Fargo, Bonanzaville USA gives modern visitors a taste of pioneer life.

Downtown Fargo’s newest brewery!
Reviewed By GavinGoesPlaces - New York City, United States
Very happy to have stopped by this brewery while in town. This is probably my favorite of the ones in the immediate Fargo area - at least downtown that is (along with Icewind out in Mapleton, which is worth the drive). Very nice of this brewery to offer flights and short pours to sample many of their brews. They also have awesome popcorn. Yum. Friendly staff - and depending on when you go - great events such as the mini fleamarket.

One of the last great malls left. It's has tall ceilings, bright lights, and not only well kept, but very nice. Food court is decent but Crave is awesome. Selection of stores is definitely the best in region, not even close. Plenty of stuff to do with kids, including an arcade, play land, giant fountain, art studio, fish tanks, and movie theaters behind the mall. Baseball fans may like the Roger Maris wing, even has an original Yankee Stadium seat
10. Fargo Air Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 176 reviews
Located just off I-29 interstate, The Fargo Air Museum is an easily accessed pet friendly, must-stop location. North Dakota's premiere aviation destination, the Fargo Air Museum's dual hangars are home to aircraft of all eras - from a modern unmanned reconnaissance drone to the "most accurate recreation of a Wright Brothers' flyer the Smithsonian Institute has ever seen." A "flying" museum, many of the airplanes occasionally take to the sky, a unique feature not found in the vast majority of the nation's static-display air museums. More than just a simple place to display its many aircraft, military memorabilia and exhibits, the Fargo Air Museum also houses one of the midwest's largest Aviation libraries. In addition, the museum hosts educational day-camps, speakers and seminars for flight fans of all ages to enjoy. The Fargo Air Museum is a fantastic choice for a unique venue for corporate & private events and has quickly become a local favorite for hosting wedding ceremonies and receptions. Please email for event rental information. Located across the street from the Fargodome, the museum is also surrounded with dining opportunities and is conveniently just moments away from the Fargo's Hector International Airport.

A bit disappointed that the Corsair was not there. A lot of great war birds among other things like a good souvenir shop.
