It`s time for downtown Minot`s Festival on Main. Last year, the flood did not stop people from attending.

Local business owners remember last years festival and are looking forward to gearing up for tomorrow.

There will be plenty of activities such as the petting zoo, the karaoke contest,carnival games and dance performances.

"We didn`t have a state fair so people were ready to just have some fun family events. The festival is just that--you could bring the kids from zero to ya know a hundred years old...and there is something for everybody, so it was really a good event and I think this year it`s gonna be even better," says Denise Limbo who is the owner of Gourmet Chef.

Last year was really really amazing because we did have the flood and we debated a lot of things were cancelled over the summer and we ended up having the festival and it was just the best turnout ever--people were really wanting to forget about the flood for a little while and go out and have a good time," says Val Stadick who is the owner of Main Street Books.

The city parking lots will be open for parking all day Gates open at 10am.
