About Historic Hall's Island
Historic Hall's Island sits along the Mississippi River in Northeast Minneapolis, now part of Above the Falls Regional Park. This outdoor, temporary concert space hosted memorable shows and offered a unique, grassy general-admission setup with room for about 8,000 attendees. While the island has been restored into a public park, its history as a live-music venue remains a notable chapter for Minnesota concerts. We’ve got the details to help you plan a visit, secure your seats for upcoming events, and find convenient places to stay and eat nearby.
Important notes: Hall's Island is an outdoor space without fixed seating, so capacity is general admission and depends on event setup. Parking is limited, so consider transit options or arriving early for the best chance at parking. Public transit connections are encouraged, and some events previously partnered with Metro Transit for easy free rides to and from the festival. When you’re ready to book, we’ll guide you through secure, straightforward ticketing and share trusted recommendations for nearby hotels and dining to complete your visit.
