Can't-miss October shows

Happy spooky season y'all! We're celebrating at DancingFish Events by helping put together two exciting shows, and we hope you'll join us.

On Saturday, October 21, we will serenaded by the sweet sounds of singer/songwriters D.C. Leonhardt, John Larsen, and The Cottonwood Shivers at the newly reopened Acadia on the West Bank. I've you've been looking for a reason to welcome Acadia back to the neighborhood, this is it! Plus, we hear that the burgers are not to be missed.

Doors at 6 // Music at 7 // 18+.

Next, Artificial Flowers and A Sunken Ship Irony are returning to the haunted forest on Thursday, October 26, at Green Room! This is your chance to frolic among woodland creatures in a beautiful indoor forest - costumes encouraged. We will be welcoming Anothernight back from their tour and enjoying the swashbuckling tunes of The Old Smugglers. You're not going to want to miss this epic night, so get your advance tickets now.

Doors at 7 // Music at 8 // 21+.

Thanks for following along, and we hope to see you at the shows!

Why We Love the State Fair 🌽

The Minnesota State Fair is the undeniable event of the summer. Here are some of our fair must-sees:

• Crop Art. Minnesotan art at its finest. Our friends Marta Shore and Tara Cantwell will both have pieces in the fair this year - look out for their names!

• Princess Kay of the Milky Way. If we needed another reason to love butter, here it is.

• The State Fair news cycle. We get so many good news stories around State Fair time. Here are some of my favorites so far this year. Meet the Roasted Corn Producer, New Foods, and the Data.

Part of the State Fair magic is the attention to detail and excellent midwestern branding that we see at and around the fair. It's very impressive to attend an event at this scale and see it grow year after year.

We would love to plan your next event with fun touches like those we see at the fair, whether it's a custom cocktail, a local band, or an audio guest book. Please reach out today to get started!
