About the Fargo Theatre
The Fargo Theatre is one of the great classic showplaces of the upper Midwest. Built in 1925, the theater started as a vaudeville house and proud home to a Mighty Wurlitzer pipe organ. Over the years the Fargo has been home to concerts, plays, movies, and even live radio shows! It has been lovingly restored to the sleek art deco style of it's 1937 remodeling.
