About the city
Hinckley, Minnesota, is a small but recognizable center for entertainment and events between the Twin Cities area and Duluth. The city is best known for the Grand Casino Hinckley complex, Hinckley Amphitheater and Grand Casino Hinckley Event Center, which is why it is often associated with concerts, stage programs and evening outings. Hinckley is a practical choice for visitors who want to combine an event, accommodation, restaurants and the relaxed atmosphere of a smaller American city.
Hinckley’s transportation advantage is its location along Interstate 35, with access via Minnesota State Highway 48, making arrival by car easy from the direction of Minneapolis, Saint Paul or Duluth. For air travel, Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) and Duluth International Airport (DLH) are most often used, while Groome Transportation connects the area with Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport, with Tobies Station Marathon as a practical arrival point. Within the Grand Casino Hinckley complex itself, Hinckley Inn Shuttle Service is also available, and parking areas around the casino, event center and amphitheater further simplify access to stages and event spaces.
Beyond the program itself, Hinckley offers enough reasons for a shorter stay before or after a concert. Visitors can walk through the historic downtown area, visit the Hinckley Fire Museum or head toward natural attractions such as Willard Munger State Trail, St. Croix State Park, Banning State Park and the Kettle and St. Croix rivers. The combination of entertainment, simple transport connections and nature makes Hinckley an appealing destination for events in Minnesota.
