Live from the Fargo Civic Center, guest host Emma McIntyre of Folkways takes over Rocky’s Downtown Radio Hour for a special holiday edition! 🎙️
Emma chats with Joe Burgum, founder of Folkways (aka Professor Pineberry the Elf), about the mission to combat loneliness through connection — and how Fargo’s Christkindlmarkt has become a beloved winter tradition blending European charm with Midwest heart.
Then, the LiveWire production team (Mark & Zane) pulls back the curtain on the magic behind the market — from dazzling lights to the cozy beer hall transformation that turns the Civic Center into a holiday wonderland.
Finally, Jordan Maahs from The Plant Supply and Tiny Things shares what it takes to be a vendor at this bustling market — from creative displays to family moments that make the season bright.
