Minneapolis Fire Department Launches Social Media Channels

The Minneapolis Fire Department (MFD) has launched new official social media channels to better connect with residents, community members, and businesses.

Follow MFD channels for timely public safety information and education, emergency preparedness, community events, stories highlighting the work and history of the department’s dedicated firefighters and a behind-the-scenes look at our firefighters who serve Minneapolis every day.

Starting September 24, MFD can be found on the following platforms:

• Facebook
• Instagram
• X for real-time updates on fires and incidents

Per Bryan Tyner, Minneapolis Fire Chief, “These channels will give our community a direct line to the latest updates on fire safety, emergency preparedness, recruitment opportunities, and real-time incident information when appropriate. We look forward to also using these platforms to share the stories of the firefighters who serve Minneapolis every day.”   

The launch is part of a broader effort by the City of Minneapolis to strengthen digital communication and improve transparency and community engagement across departments.
