No Holidazzle This Year - But Here's Minni

I know that some people heard the news of no Holidazzle this year and were super disappointed. Some people didn't care, but I'm thinking those people probably haven't been to a Holidazzle celebration. It's really been a tradition for years. It did take a short hiatus during the pandemic, like everything did. But this year they cancelled it with hopes of bringing it back next year.

Now, there is something else just announced. Minni-Dazzle!

Ok, what's Minni-Dazzle? I was asking that same question. And here it is:

Introducing MINNI DAZZLE: A holiday hub that'll serve as a way for eager Holidazzle goers to still get their fill of special events that make downtown Minneapolis a unique and festive winter experience.
Join us at our North Loop taproom Dec. 14-17 for an all-ages, family-friendly atmosphere that will welcome an assortment of familiar Holidazzle artists, artisans, entertainers, and memory makers!

And there are different events going on each day of the event. Thursday and Friday the event goes from 5 to 9pm but on Saturday and Sunday, the hours are a bit more family friendly. There is a different schedule for each day. The schedule is listed on their Facebook page. I can let you know right here what the plan is for each day. That way you can make a plan to work this into your weekend schedule.
