The Fillmore Minneapolis announced its opening lineup of performers and concert dates today. The venue, currently under construction at 525 N. 5th Street in Minneapolis’s North Loop, will open Feb. 12, 2020, with a performance by Brandi Carlile, the first of three scheduled performances by the Grammy-winning singer-songwriter.
The opening lineup includes:
The new 36,000-square-foot venue features two floors and an 1,850-person capacity. Box seats and premium tickets are on the venue’s mezzanine level alongside upscale food and beverage offerings and dedicated hospitality. Throughout The Fillmore, concertgoers have myriad choices for dining, ranging from food and drinks on both levels, to enjoying craft beer, inventive cocktails and decadent shakes at the brand-new restaurant Trax Burgers and Bar, which opens next door in early February.
“We’re proud to announce an exciting and diverse list of artists for our opening lineup to the music-loving community of Minneapolis,” said Tamsen Preston, senior promoter. “The attention and time we’ve taken to invest in building something special and unique will all be worth it when fans experience their favorite artists inside this amazing new venue. The sound system we are putting in and the sight lines are really just incredible.”
