With more than 40 individual businesses representing 20-plus different cultures, Midtown Global Market in Minneapolis is easily the largest international market in Minnesota.
Midtown Global Market spans the first floor of the former Sears Building on Lake Street in Minneapolis.
The building, one of the earliest and biggest built by the Sears company, was designed so trains could roll through the structure to deliver merchandise.
Today, instead of trains, more than 1.5 million visitors roll through Midtown Global Market every year.
They come to explore the market's halls and delight in the sights, sounds, and smells of the bustling bazaar and, of course, to shop.
The busy market's eclectic mix of shops, restaurants, and vendors draws visitors from all over.
As you explore, you'll find artisan clothes and textiles.
Many shops sell fine imported crafts. However, many artisans make their own goods right here in Minnesota.
Art abounds at Midtown Global Market as does fine, handmade jewelry.
A day of exploring the marketplace will certainly make you hungry.
Have no fear - there's plenty of food at MGM, from fresh produce to falafel, barbecue to bubble tea.
Discover many of the state's award-winning eateries, representing cuisines from five continents, at the market.
In addition to all its eating and shopping opportunities, the market regularly hosts celebrations and performances.
Moreover, you'll find plenty of kid and family-friendly activities on weekends at Midtown Global Market.
You can even pick up some MGM merch at the largest international market in Minnesota.
You could explore Midtown Global Market all day and still not see, taste, and smell everything there is to experience. Have you visited this massive market? Do you have a favorite retailer or restaurant?
