What do you do in Homer when you don’t have a plan? Apparently, a little bit of everything 😂 Even though I’m a stickler for a well-planned day, we wanted to spend our last day exploring local shops and trying everywhere that intrigued us. Still had an amazing time!! 🤩 ⁣

🎄✨ HELP ME BUILD THE 2026 FAIRBANKS HOLIDAY GUIDE! ✨🎄

Note: Please complete the Google Form below by Oct 31 for submissions!

Last year, I put together a December Holiday Guide featuring holiday markets and events around Fairbanks, and I'd like to do the same this year! I’m starting early so we can include events happening throughout the holiday season, including ones that take place in November for Black Friday and anything else!

I’m looking for ANYTHING holiday-related happening in the Fairbanks and North Pole area, including:
🎄 Holiday markets & craft fairs
🎅 Santa events & photos with Santa
✨ Tree lightings & holiday festivals
🎶 Holiday concerts & live music
🎭 Holiday plays, shows & performances
🍪 Cookie decorating, workshops & classes
🛍️ Holiday pop-ups & shopping events
☕ Holiday food & drink events
🎁 Fundraisers & community events
⛸️ Winter/holiday activities
…and anything else that feels festive!

If you’re hosting an event, representing a business/organization, or know of something that should be included, please submit it through the form here: https://forms.gle/NPzQSFr6gGDpLvmg8

I’ll be compiling everything into a 2026 Fairbanks Holiday Guide that I’ll share across my social media platforms later this year. 🎄

Please submit your event even if you think I may already know about it! I’d rather have duplicates to sort through than miss something. ❤️

And please feel free to share this post with businesses, organizations, event planners, makers, musicians, etc. who may have something to add!🎄✨

Please note that this will be published in early November, so anything for the "fall" is not applicable here. I'm always happy to reshare any happenings, so feel free to DM me on Instagram, and I'd be happy to share on my stories.

I’m putting together the 2026 Fairbanks Holiday Guide and would love your help making it as comprehensive as possible! This guide will include holiday events happening throughout the Fairbanks/North Pole area, starting as early as November and continuing through the holiday season. I’m looking f...

Spent a few beautiful days on the coast of Washington 🩷

After living in Florida for ~10 years, my soul really longs for the beach. Living in interior Alaska, I obviously don’t get a lot of beach time lol. It was great to take some time to disconnect from work and reconnect with nature before everything completely freezes in the Fairbanks area ❄️

Stopped by the Tillamook Creamery in Tillamook, Oregon, and the butter dipped ice cream cone was out of this world. I do love butter though lol. Would you try this?!
