Celebrate Snow! Family Fun at Arctic Fever 2020
Arctic Fever is sweeping the Lake Minnetonka area once again! This annual celebration of snow brings a flurry of family-friendly activities to Excelsior's surrounding neighborhoods. For the last 14 years, Arctic Fever has delighted locals and visitors throughout Minnesota, celebrating winter fun with food, festivities, and outdoor fun!
In 2006, the cities of Tonka Bay, Shorewood and Excelsior came together to host an event that encouraged locals to get active outdoors despite the cold weather. Each year, this free Arctic Fever festival continues to grow by adding new activities and attractions to the schedule of events. Arctic Fever 2020 takes place between January 16th and 19th this year and we invite you to join us for these exciting events!
