ith nearly 60 museums, 30 theater venues, more than 10 dance companies and 30 classical music
groups, you’re never far from culture here. The Bloomington Theatre and Art Center showcases
professional work from regional artists, while at Mall of America®, visitors laugh with comedians at
Rick Bronson’s House of Comedy, see big screen entertainers at Theatres at Mall of America®, and
engage with speakers, musicians and authors in the Rotunda. And that’s just the start. The surrounding metro is
home to Chanhassen Dinner Theatres, which features an eclectic, year-round performance lineup, as well as awardwinning theaters like the Guthrie Theater and Children’s Theatre Company, plus sees touring Broadway shows at
the Orpheum Theatre and Ordway Center for the Performing Arts. You can learn about the state at the Minnesota
History Center, or enjoy exhibits at favorite museums such as the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, Science Museum of
Minnesota or Walker Art Center. We’ll entertain you every day of the year.

There has been great beer, wine and spirits coming
out of Minnesota for years, but lately the number of
options has exploded. While you’re here, visit where
the beverages are made and taste the product
on-site. In the southwest metro, just minutes from
Bloomington and Mall of America®, you’ll find craft
brews at ENKI Brewing, Excelsior Brewing Company,
Lucid Brewing, Waconia Brewing Company and
both beer and wine at Schram Vineyards Winery
and Brewery. There’s plenty of beer poured in
Minneapolis, too, at places like Indeed Brewing
Company, 612 Brew and Fulton. If you prefer grapes
over hops, local varietals are bottled at wineries like
Parley Lake Winery and Sovereign Estate Winery.
For unique and quality crafted spirits, visit J. Carver
Distillery. We won’t let your glass go empty.

have all major sports teams represented.. In Minneapolis, the Vikings temporarily play the field at TCF Bank
Stadium until the team’s new digs are completed, while the Twins hit for the skyline at one of the nation’s best
ballparks, Target Field. Next door at Target Center, you’ll find the two-time championship-winning Lynx sharing
the court with the Timberwolves.. Minnesota is known as the “State of Hockey,” which explains why the Wild play to full
crowds at Xcel Energy Center every year. Plus, the University of Minnesota Gophers offer teams of all kinds to get excited
about. This summer, from July 3-16, the Twin Cities welcomes the 2015 National Senior Games. Minnesotans are proud in
their tradition of living healthy lifestyles, and we are looking forward to hosting 12,000 athletes ages 50 and older
from all over the country. No matter where you go, there’s a team to root for.
