2026 Downtown Fargo ONE BITE Challenge

Who has the BEST bite in Downtown Fargo? 🍴🏆

Find out at Downtown Fargo’s ONE BITE Challenge on Saturday, May 23 from 1:00–5:00 PM.

• A curated bite at 28 participating locations
• A limited-edition handmade appetizer plate by Livin’ the Dream Pottery (included with every ticket)
• Entry into $2,000+ in Downtown Fargo Gift Card giveaways during the event, thanks to support from Deborah Fredrickson
