And, if you haven’t yet, check out the MPR Cabin at The Great Northern Festival’s Sauna Village from Jan. 19 - Feb. 4!
This year, MPR is bringing the ultimate winter Minnesota moment to the Sauna Village at Malcom Yards during The Great Northern Festival. Pair cold winter temps, with steamy sauna sessions all while vibing to your favorite music from The Current and YourClassical MPR and curiosity-quenching stories from MPR News. Because, if you ask us, it doesn’t get much more Minnesotan than enjoying Minnesota Public Radio...in a sauna.
You can’t miss our cozy red cabin tucked in between the evergreen trees.
