The Great Northern Sauna Village: Twin Cities Pride Steam

Date & Time:
Thurs, Jan 30, 2025, 7:00–9:00 pm

Venue: The Market at Malcolm Yards
Cost: Pay what you want, $25 suggested donation

The Great Northern invites members of the queer community to a steam session focused on wellbeing, togetherness, and an embrace of the winter season.

The Great Northern Sauna Village is a trans-inclusive, safe space to celebrate queer joy during the coldest days of winter.

This steam session is pay-what-you-want, with a suggested donation of $25 per person that helps us keep our programming accessible to our community.

Plan Your Experience

Please note: Sauna participants must be 13+ years of age at the time of their sauna experience. Attendees under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Parents are welcome to bring children ages 5-13 during our Family Day Steam Sessions.

How to prepare: Bring easy-to-slip-on/off sandals or flip-flops, a towel, a robe to wear to and from the saunas, and a water bottle to stay hydrated. Bathing suits are required, and we recommend coming already dressed to maximize sauna time. Please note that Malcolm Yards requires shoes and either a robe or clothes to be worn indoors.

Please note that photographs and video footage may be taken throughout this event. These will be used by The Great Northern and its partners for marketing and publicity, our archives, on our website and in social media.

*Snow angels and cold exposure methods will be weather dependent. If above freezing temperatures, cold water buckets and rinsing stations will be available.
