    I've been coming to the Dakota County Fair for a few years now, and it always feels like the…read moreperfect prep for the Great Minnesota Get-Together! One thing I really appreciate is that general admission is free... a nice change compared to other county fairs. There's also free street parking available, or you can pay to park in the lot. The fair has all the staples: lots of food vendors, barns with animals, non-food vendor booths, live music on multiple stages, and a ride/game area. Classic fair fun! The night I went was a bit warm, so we didn't try as many foods as usual. We started with cheese curds (served hot and super tasty), then a slice of spicy pickle pizza-- not bad, but not the best either. We ended the evening with a chocolatey whoopie pie, and that was seriously yummmOOO! One area that could use some improvement, though, is the bathrooms. They definitely need a bit more attention-- updating, cleanliness and upkeep could make a big difference in the overall experience. Suggestion: Please highly consider adding a water fountain/refill station for water bottles. Still, it's always a fun time, and I'm sure I'll be back next year!

    Family always goes to fair to check out the new hot items. Love the food items and animals. Very…read morerelaxing atmosphere and cool set up with the old city buildings to explore. Never see the same thing twice when we go. Highly recommend.

    **July 2025: Sunday Morning Visit**…read more This is such a great Farmer Market and I'm so glad that I visited. On our last day in Minneapolis I happen to notice that we'd be able to attend this Sunday event. Farmers Markets in California all range in size so I didn't really know what to expect for this one - holy cow! It was huge and lots of different local things. They had Minnesota grown produce, handmade products, fresh flowers, baked good and so much more. I was introduced to Ty's Gingseng (https://www.tysginseng.com/) who grows and sells 6 year old ginseng powder - which is very high quality. I also bought relish from Red Ron's as well as some sausage links from another vendor. To be honest I probably could have spent at least 1.5 hours here if I wanted to really study all the booths and check everything out, but we had brunch plans and needed to depart within 45 mins. I would love to come back to support small! FYI: There's metered parking

    Being a MN native, I haven't been back to the farmers market in awhile and I must change that!…read more I recently went the other weekend and it was such a great way to start my weekend morning with clothes, food, flowers, produce and the list goes on! Being able to support the community and get such staple items made my heart full. It probably wasn't the wisest choice getting hot soup on a hot day but it was so delicious. There was live music, went into the walk in cooler to take a break from the sun and went back to it. Every vendor was very nice and welcoming, got some treats for my dogs, a freshly made slush coffee, and some hot dogs to end the walk around. I can't wait to come back to grab more fruits and veggies and flowers!

At the event, you can go stand to stand to sample all of the different drinks (each brewery had 3-4 options on tap). It was definitely crowded but that added to the energy! Be sure to keep moving in the beginning, once it got closer to 6pm lots of the breweries we're running out of the popular options. Another fun tradition I learned about was snacklaces! My friends and I got together the night before to build them and they definitely kept us fueled in the cold for the entirety of the event.

    The Beer Dabbler has become an amazing yearly tradition for my friends and family! It's a fun event…read moreto look forward to when the winter weather is getting you down. For $55 you get 3 hours of unlimited beer, wine & thc drinks in your souvenir cup. It's the perfect size to get a good taste of a beer and move on to the next booth. I love using this event to find out what I like/don't like in drinks! There are some awesome sculptures, performers and warming areas - plus lots and lots of port-a-potties so there's rarely a long wait. I loved that they included the colosseum this year! Pro-tip, spend the night before making a snack lace! They're tradition here and are the best to munch on. Also highly recommend wearing snow pants unless it's 35°+ - I've made the mistake of not wearing them and ended up going home after an hour since it was unbearable. My deduction of a star is that there's really no water here - or at least that I've seen in the past 3 years. This is an event where you get intoxicated pretty quickly without really realizing since you're just drinking the small tastes - and I wish there were water stations to hydrate/remind us to hydrate. Also, with the addition of THC drinks just be careful about mixing your substances - this is something I didn't think about and had some regrets. Overall - highly recommend this event to any beer drinker looking for a great winter activity! Worth the money!
