A Woman's Affair
- April 4-6, 2025
- Carlson Center – Fairbanks, Alaska
A Woman’s Affair, sponsored by Borealis Med Spa, is a highly anticipated event that showcases the quality women owned and women-oriented businesses in Fairbanks. This is a place to discuss important health issues, get tips for managing finances, shop the latest fashions, enjoy a tasty treat, learn new beauty tips and tricks, or pick up home-decorating ideas…all in one location. This event is geared toward women, but all are welcome! Co-sponsored by the Alaska Salmon Bake.
The 2025 event was a ton of fun with over 150 different businesses and agencies and a public attendance of over 3600. The public loved the “feel” of the show and enjoyed the opportunity of gathering educational information, supporting local non-profits, and shopping.
FRIDAY NIGHT SIP & SHOP
Friday evening opens with a Sip & Shop sponsored by Robinson & Ward P.C. Certified Public Accountants. Like the rest of the weekend, the event is a ton of fun! The ticket cost is $20 and includes a drink ticket (alcoholic or non-alcoholic “mocktail” options available), great Friday night-only door prizes, and a weekend pass to A Woman’s Affair (a $10 value). Hors d’oeuvres and additional drinks are available for purchase. This is a 21 and over event. Minors are welcome with a parent or legal guardian and ages 13 and over must purchase a ticket. Tickets will be available for purchase at the door, no need to purchase in advance.
