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 and a bold representation of 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, pick up home decorating ideas, or discover a new hobby all in one location.
The 2024 event was a ton of fun, with over 160 different businesses and agencies and a public attendance of nearly 3,600. The public loved the “feel” of the show and enjoyed the opportunity to gather educational information, support local nonprofits, and shop.
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, a weekend pass to A Woman’s Affair (a $10 value), and a goodie bag upon entry (contents vary). Hors d’oeuvres and additional drinks are available for purchase.
Please note that we have changed things up for this event this year! In the past, it has been a wine tasting with food included. We have listened to feedback, and after some forced changes due to updated liquor laws, we took the opportunity to improve the event as a whole. We are no longer focusing mostly on wine; we reduced ticket pricing, and now you have the choice to purchase food and a few options to choose from. The goodie bags are also a fun addition with vendor specials inside!
This is a 21-and-over event. Children are welcome only if accompanied by a legal parent or guardian.
Saturday and Sunday admission is $5 for adults, children 12 and under are free, and Sunday is free to anyone who brings two cans of food for the Fairbanks Food Bank!
If you have a woman-owned or woman-oriented business, we’d love to have you on our show! A Woman’s Affair is your chance to market your business or agency to a large cross-section of our community in a single weekend.
