Somerset Amphitheater

With one of the world's best shopping, dining, and entertainment complexes, families will feel at home in East Bloomington where the Mall of America is located. Fort Snelling State Park is also nearby to offer green space and fresh air – a perfect contrast to the mall.

Whilst there is much to do in East Bloomington, Downtown is where most of the city’s action is at. Here, you’re within walking distance of a city full of shops and restaurants, as well as theatres, museums, and other top attractions.

See how the city comes alive at night in the trendy Warehouse District, a hub of entertainment located just a few blocks away from Downtown. As well as bars, pubs, and clubs, and live events, this fashion-forward area will impress you with its line-up of boutiques.

For cheap yet central accommodation stay in the Gateway and Mill districts, which overlook the Mississippi River. These are two of the most historic districts in Minneapolis, previously known for their concentration of flour mills. Now they are peaceful urban areas that offer a quieter perspective of the city.

From Downtown and the surrounding neighbourhoods, it’s easy to explore Minneapolis on foot. If, however, you’d like to visit the Mall of America or St Paul, it’s possible to take a bus.
