    Established in 1977, The Saloon is a cornerstone of Minneapolis's LGBTQ+ nightlife, offering a vibrant mix of dance floors, themed rooms, and eclectic entertainment. The main area boasts a spacious dance floor and a long bar, while other sections include a cozy fireplace room and an outdoor patio. Known for its lively parties, drag shows, karaoke nights, and unique events like shower contests, it has hosted notable performers such as Vanessa Vanjie Mateo and Todrick Hall. In 2023, The Saloon made a significant shift by replacing Anheuser-Busch products with selections from local breweries like Modist Brewing Co. and Bauhaus Brew Labs, reflecting its commitment to community support.
