Cocktails at the Castle is the American Swedish Institute’s signature museum party, awarded ’Best Event Concept’ multiple years by Minneapolis/St. Paul Magazine. Cocktails is an adults-only event that features live music, art, handcraft, festival food and – of course – craft cocktails by FIKA Café. The entirety of ASI’s campus is activated for this once (or twice) per year can’t-miss party! From fire dancers to fashion shows, DJs to log rollers, each Cocktails at the Castle features a new and unique lineup of artists, musicians, exhibits and activities inspired by ASI’s exhibitions on view.
From pop concerts on the main stage, to wandering theater performances, to surprise improv in the Mansion – there are no limits to what you might find around each corner!
Watch as a mural comes to life over the course of the evening, learn how a crafter turns something ordinary into something extraordinary, or try your hand at making something beautiful yourself!
When Swedes drink – they sing! Learn a song and get in the Swedish spirit. Bring the beverage of your choice and skål with style. No Nordic heritage required!
Dancing is a requirement of any good party. Boogie down in FIKA cafe with our guest DJ host before you call it a night.
No party would be complete without good food and drink! FIKA cafe curates a selection of pre-made specialty cocktails and small plate options inspired by the current exhibit.
Each Cocktails at the Castle is unique and inspired by ASI’s current exhibition!
