I am so glad I do not have to navigate the shit show of Minneapolis local politics. What even is this?!

no, i think that was something different. only holidazzle last year was on nicollet mall

taylr @taylordahlin.com · 13h

i wondered what happened to all the huts after that year!

taylr @taylordahlin.com · 13h

that's a knockoff. the st paul christmas market is just holidazzle 2014, they did it in peavey plaza and it was a traditional german christmas market. then the person who was responsible for that moved over to st paul and did it again

More evidence for my theory that this debate over buses on Nicollet Mall had to happen because Mayor Frey needed to fill an election year with talk of his great big idea for downtown. And not because it's very well thought out.

dan orban by land or by sea, JP bullfrog has it covered

taylr @taylordahlin.com · 14h

and, actually, having thought it through, it's scott graham, not mike erlandson. that's the closest we get

this is why you don't let your dog drive your dan orban mobile around downtown, it'll get stuck on a curb, dogs can't drive

JP bullfrog posed with dan orban and jason chavez after the ward 9 forum. he's playing both sides, that way he comes out on top? NO! he is running as a write in candidate against them!!

omar fateh, hamoudi sabri, JP bullfrog. this is pure ward 9 chaos. ward 7 could never. we just get, like, mike erlandson. that's not fun

ilhan omar endorses omar fateh as first choice for mayor of minneapolis in front of city hall. “our city deserves a fighter who will unapologetically stand up for working people and who meets the pivotal moment our city is in.”

Minneapolis Downtown Council pulls plug on Holidazzle and Aquatennial, seeks new organizer

After years of inconsistent funding, the business group is hoping others will continue or reimagine the city’s signature events as the area keeps working on its post-pandemic rebound.

so much has already been experimented with over the years with holidazzle, how much more can you innovate it? a parade to a festival, the german style huts in peavey one year with the reindeer, then to loring park, weekly fireworks, santa in the park, they have tried so much lol

sorry, kids, adam duininck killed holidazzle, it costs too much money to put on! don't look at the downtown council giving we love mpls $35,000 in may 2025
