CELEBRATE THE WINTER WONDERLAND THAT IS MINNEAPOLIS

Great Northern CREDIT Lane Pelovsky-Meet Minneapolis

The Great Northern celebrates Minneapolis’ cold winters through 10 days creative ways to invigorate mind and body. 

With a full lineup of winter events and some serious FOMO (fear of missing out), locals make sure to get out and experience the winter wonderland that encapsulates us all for a few months out of the year.

The three main events are the U.S. Pond Hockey Championships, City of Lakes Loppet/Luminary Loppet and the Saint Paul Winter Carnival.

The U.S. Pond Hockey Championships are played on frozen Lake Nokomis – the way hockey is meant to be played. The just-for-fun tournament brings out the best pond hockey players from all over the country to compete in our state’s favorite sport.

The City of Lakes Loppet is a cross-country ski festival for the whole family that includes ski races for all ages, skill levels and abilities. Be sure to experience other fun events like the Minne-Loppet, skijoring, dog sledding, and the popular Luminary Loppet – the most magical event of the season with a candlelit trail winding across Lake of the Isles.

The Saint Paul Winter Carnival features a Torchlight Parade, Fire and Ice Winter Run, ice-carving competition, ice fishing tournament and more.
