Saloon Hosts Pre-Cruise “Bon Voyage” Party

One of the most popular annual Pride events is always the Pride Boat Cruise on the Mississippi River. This year, the Imperial Court of Minnesota is sponsoring the Pride Boat Cruise on June 22, exactly a week before the Pride Parade and Festival, aboard the Minneapolis Queen paddleboat of Paradise Charter Cruises.

The Pride Boat Cruise departs at 5:30 PM from Bohemian Flats, 2200 West River Parkway, Minneapolis—just north of the University of Minnesota West Bank and the Washington Avenue Bridge. Boarding takes place 15 minutes prior to departure.

The Saloon bar, 830 Hennepin Avenue, Minneapolis, is hosting a pre-cruise “Bon Voyage” Party on June 22, 3-5 PM. It features drink specials, food, and fun. The first 50 participants will get complimentary round-trip transfers to the cruise.

Tickets for the Pride Boat Cruise are $25 in advance. Purchase them online at http://www.impcourtmn.com/event.htm. Tickets will also be on sale at the dock from 4 PM to the departure time on the day of the cruise.

ICOM is a local nonprofit that raises thousands of dollars each year for local charitable organizations.
