If you’re looking for something festive to do during your free time, the Minneapolis Christkindlmarket is a must-visit. This outdoor European-style Christmas market brings all the cozy holiday vibes — twinkling lights, wooden vendor huts, warm drinks, and live music. You’ll find handcrafted gifts, holiday treats, and plenty of photo-worthy moments. Grab a mug of spiced glühwein or hot chocolate, snack on fresh pastries or bratwurst, and enjoy the cheerful winter atmosphere.

It’s a great spot to explore on Friday evening or Saturday morning before the wedding!
