Norsk Høstfest

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Norsk Høstfest (lit. "Norwegian Autumn Festival") is an annual festival held each October in Minot, North Dakota. It is the largest Scandinavian cultural festival in North America.

The Høstfest takes place on the state fairgrounds in Minot every October. Much like the state fair, there are several headliner acts booked each night of the event, not limited to the event's Scandinavian theme; Bill Cosby, among others, have performed at Høstfest. Headliners for the October 10October 14, 2006 festival include Neil Sedaka, George Jones, Terri Clark, and Tim Conway & Harvey Korman. Performers on other stages include The Oak Ridge Boys, Williams and Ree, Haugaard & Høirup from Denmark and Bjøro Haaland from Norway.
