Downtown Minneapolis
Mainroom + intimate club
First Avenue & 7th St Entry
The room. Prince filmed Purple Rain here. The black stars on the outside wall track every act that has played the venue. The Mainroom is one of the best mid-sized rock clubs in the country, and the 7th St Entry next door is the small room where bands try out the city before they grow into the big stage. If you only see one show in Minneapolis, see it here.
