What do Celine Dion, Barack Obama, and the Phoenix Suns all have in common? Besides national prominence in their respective fields, these people/teams have all performed at the Target Center in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota. And these names are just a drop in the bucket: the Minneapolis Target Center is home to the Minnesota Timberwolves, Minnesota Lynx, and has a year-round schedule chock full of concerts, sporting events, and a myriad of other entertainment options. Truly, a Target Center ticket can give you access to one of the best venues in the midwest for your choice of fun for an evening in the big city.
The Target Center is one of downtown Minneapolis' biggest attractions. The Target Center venue took over two years to construct and ran up a $104,000,000 bill. Yet the huge cost and the hard work was well worth it. Today, the Minneapolis Target Center readily accomodates even the biggest superstars. In its 18 year history, the Target Center has been a hot spot of entertainment and sporting events.
The city of Minneapolis officially owns the Target Center and has hired AEG Facilities to manage daily activity. This arrangement was crafted just in 2007 after Minneapolis took over rights from Clear Channel Entertainment. People who know the Target Center's history, however, remember that it was originally owned and operated by business duo Marv Wolfenson and Harvey Ratner who also owned the Minnesota Timberwolves basketball team for 5 years. In spite of these many transfers, the Target Center has consistently made a substantial profit and maintained a reputation of excellence.
Perhaps the biggest reason why the Target Center is so popular is the fact that it has a perfect location in Minneapolis' Warehouse District. The Target Center is easy to get to, many parking ramps provide ample opportunity to find a parking spot, and hip restaurants and bars are within easy walking distance to host hours of after-hours entertainment.
The Target Center has been known to quickly sell out of Target Center tickets (case in point: Miley Cyrus) and a Target Center ticket can be a nearly priceless pass into great basketball games and concerts. Don't delay-- purchase your Target Center tickets early to guarantee a great seat for your favorite entertainment. Take a look at the Target Center's line-up and buy your Target Center tickets today
