Minneapolis Attractions & City Passes
How a city attraction pass works
A city attraction pass bundles admission to several of a city's top sights into one ticket you buy once. The big passes — CityPASS, Go City and The Sightseeing Pass — each cover a different set of attractions and price differently, and what they include changes over time. That is why this page never prints a price or a fixed bundle: we show you the cited attractions and link you to the provider for live pricing, so you compare against the sights you actually want to see.

With a metro area population of nearly 3.8 million, the Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington region supports a rich variety of museums, historic sites, and green spaces. The area also provides access to two nearby National Park Service sites for those interested in expanded exploration.
