New Years Eve Events

December 22, 2019

What a year! The holidays came quick and this decade seems to be wrapping up even quicker. We are sharing a few fun activities for you, your sweetheart and your family to do in the following days.

New Year’s Eve Date Night

Orchestra Hall This sounds like a great date night downtown to me. A concrete plan with live music in the heart of Downtown Minneapolis. The show starts at 8:30pm, so you have plenty of time to get dinner downtown and get over to Orchestra Hall. All the concert information can be found on their website here. Following the show there will be a party in the lobby with a live jazz band, Belle Amour.

There are some great breweries and distilleries in Minneapolis.

Some of our favorite spots include:

Tattersall Distillery – This is a chic taproom. Although they don’t service a full kitchen, there is typically a food truck on site. Check out their website for their full food truck calendar.

Surly – The best part of this gorgeous taproom is they serve food! The main floor serves a great variety of food and upstairs is a full pizza menu.

Indeed Brewing – One of Kayla’s favorite beers is brewed here: Mexican Honey

Able Seedhouse + Brewery – They also have a large selection of beers on tap

New Year’s Eve staying in with friends

We love a good game night with friends. This is a great solution for some holiday fun indoors. We’ve shared some of our favorite games on this past weeks Sunday Saves!

Make a Wish

I have seen people write goals on wishing paper, light them and they take off into the moonlight. Thinking about your intentions always seems like a great way to go into the new year. Add some fun by going outside with sparklers to light up the night!

Family Day Time Activities

Alexander Ramsey House

The historic victorian house throws an amazing family friendly New Year’s Eve party on December 27. All three floors will have everything from food, music, dancing, games, and more. Explore for yourself!

Maple Grove Ice Skating Ribbon

So we have not been yet… but it is definitely on our list! A lot of local lakes have a skating area, but in Maple Grove they have an entire ribbon! Warming house, concessions, ice skate rental, they have it all. The are open from 10:00am to 9:00pm on New Years Eve.

Centennial Lakes Ice Skating

This is a 10-acre groomed ice skating lake located in Edina, MN. Another awesome skating set up, with a warming house and skate rental. Don’t forget to warm up with some hot chocolate from the concession stand. Open from noon to 9:30pm on New Years Eve.

Holiday Markets

Our friends at MSP Mag have rounded up all the local holiday markets, some are even open air markets, with warmer temps outside what a perfect opportunity to get outside.

Host a Dinner Party

Spending the evening with friends or family, you can never go wrong with a small dinner party. Hosting friends and family is one of my favorite things to do. A look back at a dinner celebration with our friends at Monogram Appliances in our Josephine Reveal.

Holiday Outfits

Something for all of the above occasions.
