Spring officially starts on Sunday, March 20th. For many Minneapolis residents, the changing of the season cannot come soon enough. With all the snow and frigid temperatures, we are due for a nice thaw come springtime.
So, how do you keep your spirits up when there are still weeks to go before the city starts to warm up a little? All these spring events in Minneapolis! Let them be a beacon of light at the end of the tunnel. Here are six of the Minneapolis events we’re most excited about.
NCAA Women’s Final Four
You may think March Madness is just for the boys, but come April, they better step aside. Hosted in the beloved Target Center, this year’s NCAA Women’s Final Four brings the excitement of college basketball to Minnesota.
Taking place April 1 – 3, the last leg of this tournament will feature some of the best university players in the country. Time to start brushing off your brackets. This Minneapolis event is going to be a good one.
The Black Market
There’s nothing better than supporting local makers and businesses. Minneapolis is lucky to have so many creative and innovative individuals. One of the best places to check out is The Black Market. Platforming black-owned businesses, it’s a place where you can shop, eat delicious food, and enjoy local entertainment. Go ahead and pencil in their upcoming spring market days on April 9th and May 14th.
Holz Park Spring Festival
There’s something special about how the world comes alive in the spring. One place you can really feel all the splendors of the new season is the historic Holz Park Farm. Settled in 1870, the farm now hosts its very own spring festival full of hayrides, bleating sheep, and live music.
Genuine fun for the whole family, the Holtz Park Spring Festival is the perfect outdoor activity for the season. With two time slots to choose from, you can go ahead and buy your tickets for the May 15th event today!
Art-a-Whirl
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then attending Art-a-Whirl is like reading a stack of novels. From May 20-22, the Northeast Minneapolis Arts Association (NEMAA) will host this unique art event. Enjoy the works of over 1,000 artists in the largest open studio event in the country. It will be a feast for the eyes and a fantastic opportunity to see what the unique Minneapolis art scene has to offer.
Mill City Farmers Market
Nothing says springs like a bounty of greens, asparagus, and herbs. The Mill City Farmers is one of the premier places in Minneapolis to enjoy the best of Minnesota fruits and vegetables. You’ll have 30+ farmers to shop from, so start scoping out your favorite spring recipes now! The spring harvest will be in full swing on March 26th, April 9th and 23rd.
Earth Day Cleanup
Nature really gives back in the springtime. After gray winter days, we’re graced with green leaves on trees and colorful flowers—what better way to celebrate than by giving back to Mother Earth.
On April 23rd, you can participate in Minneapolis’s Earth Day Cleanup. It’s free and simple to join. Just grab a trash bag and some gloves, pick a designated Earth Day site near you, and get to work! You can make a day of it with friends and family while doing something to help your community.

These guys were my second call when my furnace stopped working properly. The first company I used sent a tech out who said the furnace needed to be replaced, and gave me a quote, but said he "jiggled a wire" and got it running again for the time being.
When it went out again the other day, I called Ray N. Welter. Their tech, Ralph, fixed the problem in half an hour. He told me the furnace is pretty old, but his fix should get me through the winter "and maybe a couple more," and then gave me a quote that was lower than the first company.
These guys are rad.

Furnace stopped working. When that happens after hours you learn a lot about companies. Today I called RW and got a person on the phone that knows about furnaces and he dispatched a service person Phil within 2 hours. I called them based on personal refer and reviews. They are excellent. Despite having a very old furnace it was the second time that this company said I did not need to replace. If I did replace it I want a Trane and RW would do to the work. For now I will call them for fall/spring tune ups and love that they don't have the club memberships etc. Just good solid customer service for all customers. A really ++ experience. Family run business with integrity.

If you need superior service this is your company!!! We were in Florida experiencing our first year as "snowbirds" when our furnace (in Bloomington) stopped working. Rick Welter personally took our call and not only sent a technician to our cold home, but checked on it for the next two days until our new heating unit could be properly installed. Phenomenal service!
In addition to the great service, their pricing was very competitive. I highly recommend this company for all of your heating or A/C needs!!!
