- Holidazzle at Loring Park Thursdays through Sundays, November 25-December 23
- A holiday destination for people to come and enjoy downtown Minneapolis. All ages welcome, it showcases local food, art, and community groups. There’s outdoor skating, musical performances, and weekly movies. You can even stick around for fireworks at the end of the night!
- Skating at the Renaissance Depot Hotel check online for dates and times
- The Depot Skating Rink has been named as one of the top places to skate by USA Today. It is housed in an 1899 Minneapolis train depot, hence the name. The floor to ceiling windows creates the illusion you’re outside, and a bonus of the location is that there are food and drinks close by.
