Pregame celebration with game-day food and drink specials, music and tailgate energy before a Minnesota Vikings home game.
The Downtown Tailgate is back at Tavola on Sunday, October 25, as part of a series that runs before every Minnesota Vikings home game at U.S. Bank Stadium. It's presented by the Elliot Park Hotel and Mosaic, and it's meant to bring the game-day energy into downtown Minneapolis, just a few blocks from the stadium. If you're heading to the game, it's a spot to gather and get in the mood before the kickoff.
Inside, they've got game-day food and drink specials, music, and that outdoor tailgate feel brought indoors. It's open to hotel guests, locals, and football fans alike, so it works whether you're staying nearby or just coming in from across town. The whole thing is built around the pregame—the food, the drinks, and the music—so you can hang out for a while and then make the short walk over to the stadium when it's time.
