Holidays on Hennepin: Your Neighborhood Holiday Destination

This year, Hennepin Avenue is transforming into a winter wonderland, and Granada Theater is proud to be part of the magic! The Holidays on Hennepin celebration brings our entire neighborhood together for a month-long festival of lights, entertainment, and community spirit.
From Black Friday through New Year's Day, you can pick up a free Holiday Passport from participating businesses (including us!) and embark on a festive journey through the area. This isn't just about pretty decorations: though those are absolutely stunning. It's about creating memories, supporting local businesses, and experiencing the unique charm that makes our corner of Minneapolis so special.
As you explore with your Holiday Passport, you'll discover dazzling light displays that'll have you reaching for your camera, cozy spots for warming up with seasonal beverages, and unique shopping opportunities perfect for finding those one-of-a-kind gifts. Plus, participating businesses are offering special deals and experiences you won't find anywhere else.
The beauty of Holidays on Hennepin is how it showcases the diverse character of our neighborhood. You might start your evening with dinner and drinks at Granada Theater, then stroll through the illuminated streets, pop into local shops, and discover hidden gems you never knew existed. It's like having a holiday festival right in your backyard!
Black Friday Savings That Actually Matter
Let's talk about our Black Friday deals: because who doesn't love a good bargain, especially during the holidays? This year, we're offering substantial savings on private event rentals that'll make your holiday celebrations both memorable and budget-friendly.

Our Black Friday savings aren't just token discounts. We're talking about real value on private event rentals that can transform your holiday gatherings from ordinary to extraordinary. Whether you're planning a corporate holiday party, a family reunion, an anniversary celebration, or even a unique holiday wedding reception, our discounted rental rates make it easier than ever to host your event in style.
Think about it: instead of cramming everyone into your living room or booking some generic conference room, you could be celebrating in a historic venue with character, charm, and all the amenities you need for an unforgettable event. Our space offers the perfect blend of intimate atmosphere and professional service that makes every gathering feel special.
The timing couldn't be better either. Black Friday kicks off the holiday season, and with our savings, you can book your December or January event at a fraction of the regular cost. That means more money in your pocket for catering, decorations, or whatever else makes your celebration perfect.
Don't wait too long though: our calendar fills up fast during the holidays, and these Black Friday rates are only available for a limited time. If you've been on the fence about hosting a private event, this is your chance to make it happen without breaking the bank.
Holiday Gift Cards: The Perfect Present with a Bonus
Here's where things get really exciting. Our holiday gift card program is designed to spread joy not just to the recipient, but to the gift-giver too. When you purchase a $100 gift card, we're throwing in an additional $25 gift card absolutely free. That's like getting 25% extra value on every gift card purchase!
This deal is perfect for so many situations. Got a foodie friend who's always talking about trying new restaurants? A gift card to Granada Theater gives them the flexibility to enjoy our Spanish-inspired menu whenever they want. Know someone who loves live entertainment? They can use their gift card toward tickets for our upcoming shows and events.
But here's the really smart part: that bonus $25 card is yours to keep. So while you're giving a thoughtful gift to someone else, you're also treating yourself to a future visit. It's like holiday shopping that rewards you for being generous!
These gift cards never expire and can be used for anything we offer: dining, drinks, private events, or entertainment. They're also perfect for last-minute gifts because you can pick them up right here at the venue or arrange for convenient delivery.
Holiday Entertainment That Brings Magic to Life
The holiday season at Granada Theater is packed with special events and entertainment that capture the magic of the season. We're hosting intimate candlelight concerts that create an enchanting atmosphere you simply can't find anywhere else. There's something absolutely magical about experiencing live music by candlelight: it transforms even familiar songs into something extraordinary.
Our "Taste the Movies" series is also featuring holiday classics that'll transport you back to childhood memories while creating new ones. These aren't just movie screenings: they're immersive experiences that engage all your senses and make you feel like you're part of the story.
For those who love a good cocktail with their entertainment, our holiday-themed drinks menu features seasonal flavors that perfectly complement whatever show or event you're attending. From warming winter spices to festive fruit combinations, every sip adds to the holiday atmosphere.
Private Events with Holiday Flair

Speaking of private events, there's something extra special about hosting your holiday celebration in a venue that already has character and charm built right in. Granada Theater provides the perfect backdrop for intimate holiday gatherings that feel both elegant and welcoming.
Our private event packages can be customized to match your vision perfectly. Want a Spanish-inspired holiday menu? We've got you covered. Prefer a more traditional approach? No problem. Need specific entertainment or special arrangements? Consider it done.
The beauty of hosting your holiday event here is that you get all the benefits of professional event planning without losing that personal touch. Your guests will be impressed by the unique atmosphere, but more importantly, they'll remember how good they felt being there.
Plus, with our Black Friday savings, you can afford to add those special touches that really make an event memorable. Maybe it's upgraded catering, special entertainment, or custom decorations: whatever makes your celebration uniquely yours.
Making Memories This Holiday Season
The holidays are about more than just gifts and decorations: they're about creating moments that matter with the people you care about. Whether you're exploring Holidays on Hennepin with family, enjoying a romantic evening at one of our candlelight concerts, or hosting a celebration that brings everyone together, Granada Theater is here to help make this holiday season unforgettable.
Our Black Friday savings on private event rentals are available for a limited time, so if you're thinking about hosting something special, now's the time to make it happen.
