Tickets for Biffy Clyro in Minneapolis - Apr 26, 2026

The Fillmore Minneapolis is a modern event center and concert hall with a signature “rock-meets-elegance” feel—industrial character paired with a polished, upscale finish that works equally well for major tours and special events. Built as a flexible venue (around 22,000 sq ft), its setup-dependent capacity typically lands in the 1,500+ range.

Inside, the experience stays performance-first: state-of-the-art sound and lighting deliver clear, punchy acoustics, while the layout keeps sightlines strong even when the room is packed. For an easier night out, there’s a VIP lounge plus on-site food and bar options, so everything you need is under one roof.

Location is a major advantage: 525 N 5th St, Minneapolis, United States. There’s no dedicated parking lot, but the venue sits directly by the Target Field Station light-rail stop—step off the platform and you’re basically at the doors. If you’re driving, expect metered street parking and nearby ramps/garages (the closest is behind the building); for broader citywide transit context, see the city section below on the page.

Minneapolis, at the heart of the Twin Cities region, is not only a major business and cultural hub, but also one of the most enjoyable U.S. destinations for concerts and sporting events. The city carries a distinct creative energy, and the blend of urban momentum with a relaxed Midwest feel makes it a strong choice for a weekend getaway or a longer stay. If you want a place where the evening easily turns into an experience, Minneapolis offers plenty to do before and after the event.

A key advantage of Minneapolis is its practical connectivity: public transportation is operated by Metro Transit, and the fastest routes toward downtown and key areas are provided by the METRO Blue Line and METRO Green Line, supported by a wide bus network. If you’re arriving by air, Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) is the main gateway, and you can continue to many parts of the city by public transit without hassle. For transfers downtown, Target Field Station is a commonly used hub, making it easier to plan your trip to different arenas and stadiums. If you’re arriving by intercity rail, the region’s rail hub is St. Paul Union Depot, with straightforward connections toward Minneapolis.

When you have time between plans, it’s worth walking along the Mississippi riverfront and enjoying the paths and viewpoints that give the city its distinctive character. Fans of urban scenery often choose areas shaped by industrial heritage and revitalized neighborhoods, while a calmer break is easy to find in the city’s well-known parks and lakes that feel surprisingly close. That combination of a strong event calendar and easily accessible attractions is exactly why Minneapolis is a destination people return to—whether you’re coming for music, sports, or the full city experience.

Biffy Clyro are a Scottish rock band formed in Kilmarnock in 1995, celebrated for blending alternative rock grit with big melodies and stadium-ready hooks. The trio—Simon Neil alongside twin brothers James and Ben Johnston—deliver a signature sound that works as well in intimate rooms as on vast outdoor stages. Their songs often move from quiet tension to explosive peaks, so repeat listens keep revealing fresh guitar layers, rhythmic turns, and unexpected harmonic shifts that reward attention. The band’s longevity comes from a constant appetite to evolve without losing its core identity.

Their show production is built around a tightly tuned band “wall of sound”, clear vocals and responsive lighting that mirrors every change of pace. Audiences get a full, balanced mix wherever they stand, because the arrangements stay solid even when a song opens up for controlled improvisation. Live, they stand out for timing, drive and emotional pacing, with enough breathing space for the crowd to sing, reset, and surge again. Visuals remain purposeful and supportive, keeping the focus on the performance and the songs.

Biffy Clyro are not just hitmakers: they write songs that connect personal stories to universal themes of growth, loss and resilience. The lyrics are vivid enough to invite interpretation, yet direct enough to be shouted back in unison. Musically they range from heavy riffs to atmospheric interludes, with marked shifts in meter and tempo, so the catalogue suits rock fans and listeners chasing modern, heartfelt intensity. In the studio, layered arrangements and punchy detail help each chorus land with real impact.
