Cocktails at the Castle Returns September 12

The American Swedish Institute presents the return of Cocktails at the Castle on Friday, September 12, at the historic Turnblad Mansion.

This fall, guests will experience an unforgettable night as Cocktails at the Castle brings together live music, Nordic-inspired art, and unexpected surprises. On this adults-only night, guests can enjoy bands, surprising pop-up activities, specially curated food and drinks, and explore the museum galleries. 

This year’s event takes inspiration from ASI’s current exhibition, Salad Hilowle: Inscriptions, on display through October 26. The night promises an exciting array of activities, including headlining performances by up-and-coming Minnesota artists, make-and-take craft activities, Kubb contest, and much more.
