The University of Minnesota at Minneapolis is home to one of the most beloved event venues in the land, Northrop Auditorium. Built and named after Cyrus Northrop in 1929, this state-of-the-art facility was commissioned as a multipurpose auditorium on the East Bank campus and was designed to host large events such as concerts, theatrical and musical performances, lectures, and more.
