Getting thereArrival timing, parking, transit and getting home
Localtime
When to arrive
Plan to arrive at least 30 minutes before the performance. Lobbies normally open about an hour before curtain and house seating about 30 minutes before; late seating depends on the production. Add mobile tickets to your wallet beforehand, ideally 48 hours ahead. Screenshots are not accepted; keep the live ticket or wallet pass available for ushers.
Transit & the journey home
State Theatre is at 805 Hennepin Avenue, Minneapolis. It has no elevator: the operator directs patrons who cannot manage stairs to main-floor tickets. Request a suitable accessible allocation when buying rather than assuming a balcony ticket can be exchanged on arrival. The regular box office opens weekdays noon–5 p.m.; show box offices normally open two hours before curtain.
Confirm return service and last departures for your event’s finish time.
Parking
Parking At A Glance
Parking difficulty
Downtown garage entrance and walking route matter
- What to do
- The operator identifies the garage below La Salle Plaza with its entrance on Ninth Street. Take the garage elevator to street level and follow the promenade to State Theatre; this is separate from the theatre itself, which has no elevator. Check current ramp rate, hours and accessible spaces with the parking operator.
- Best option
- Compare La Salle Plaza and the owner’s current nearby-lot/reservation options, matching the garage entrance and final walk to 805 Hennepin Avenue.
- Avoid
- Do not treat a garage elevator or skyway as elevator access to State Theatre’s balcony. Downtown sports/events can add traffic, and the Church Lot’s Sunday 5 a.m.–2 p.m. closure may affect matinee plans.
