About
Minneapolis–Saint Paul listeners, if you’re wondering what to do this week, you’ve got a seriously packed Twin Cities lineup.
Let’s start with today in Saint Paul, where hockey absolutely owns the spotlight. According to Grand Casino Arena’s event listing, the MSHSL Boys Hockey State Tournament wraps up with a full day of Class A and Class AA showdowns. Class A plays the third-place game this morning at 9:30 a.m. and the championship at 12 p.m., followed by Class AA’s third-place game at 4 p.m. and the big championship at 7 p.m. in downtown Saint Paul. This is Minnesota hockey at its loudest and most dramatic, with reserved seating, packed student sections, and a true state-tournament atmosphere.
Right next door, Saint Paul RiverCentre is buzzing with the Let’s Play Hockey Expo. The RiverCentre’s event page calls it the world’s largest consumer hockey show, running from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. today. It’s powered by the Minnesota Wild and tied directly to the tournament, with more than 100 exhibitors showing off brand-new gear from Warrior, CCM, True Hockey, and a long list of local and national hockey brands. Listeners can test equipment, check out training tools, browse backyard rink setups, and hit interactive skill stations. Admission is just five dollars for adults 19 and over, and free for 18 and under, making it a great family stop between games.
If you prefer to be on the ice yourself, Ramsey County’s event calendar lists a free open skate this afternoon at Highland Arena in Saint Paul from 3 to 4:30 p.m. at 800 Snelling Avenue South. It’s a nice option if you’re inspired by all that tournament energy and want to lace up your own skates without spending a dime.
Looking to build out plans for the rest of the week and beyond, Explore Minnesota’s statewide festival and events calendar highlights an ongoing run of Men On Boats in Minneapolis through March 6, and the ABBA-themed show ABBASolutely Fab in nearby Chanhassen through March 7. Those give listeners theater and music options if you want a midweek or next-weekend outing beyond downtown.
