Prince Fans To Gather For Five-Day Memorial Event Marking 10 Years Since His Death

A five-day "Celebration of Life" event has been planned to honor Prince ten years after his death. Prince Celebration organizers announced the event will run from June 3rd through 7th across multiple locations in Minneapolis and St. Paul, along with Paisley Park, Prince's illustrious home, recording studio, and performance space. The tribute aims to celebrate "the music, artistry, and cultural impact" of Prince through concerts, screenings, boat cruises, and panel discussions. Opening festivities include a DJ Dance Party at First Avenue - the legendary nightclub where much of Purple Rain was filmed - and a Downtown Block Party at the iconic Prince Mural. Attendees will receive "exclusive access to unreleased music and rare concert footage" plus special celebrations for a variety of album anniversaries including Parade (1986), Emancipation (1996), and 3121 (2006). VIP packages offer guided tours, Sunday Gospel Brunch, and VIP lunch access. Complete programming details will be released on March 25th, with tickets available through the event website.
