7 Things To Know About Can Can Wonderland
Here's everything you need to know about the artsy, mini-golf-filled fun-house in Saint Paul's Creative Enterprise Zone.
History of Can Can Wonderland
Can Can Wonderland? The name is a nod to the building's history, which once served as a sprawling complex that manufactured metal food cans for Carnation, Campbell's Soup, and Del Monte, as the largest tin can factory in the country – American Can. It’s also tied to the French populist art movement, Can Can.
Can Can Wonderland Mini Golf Course
18 holes from 18 artists. Chosen from a pool of 200 proposals, each hole was designed by a local artist. The course begins with a State Fair-themed hole No. 1 and moves into a natural disaster hole, complete with a ground-shaking earthquake and floor-to-ceiling spinning tornado. From there, patrons putt through crazy obstacles ranging from Grandma’s 1970s living room to a giant hot pink wooly mammoth who arrived via Hot Tub Time Machine. Not to be without a Prince tribute, the course finishes with “The Mini-Golf Hole Formerly Known as the Longest Hole” which is, of course, purple.
Can Can Wonderland Prices
Game on! A round of mini-golf costs $15 for adults and $13 for kids under 12, seniors and military members.
Can Can Wonderland Pinball and Arcade
"But, I don't like mini-golf." Lucky for those who don’t prefer sports of the mini-variety, Can Can Wonderland has a “Boardwalk of Amusements” which contains a variety of pinball and arcade games dating back to the 1920s. There’s even an old-timey photo booth for those looking to get extra vintage. Two hours of all-you-can-play arcades plus a private table for your group is $10/person.
Can Can Wonderland Food and Drinks
Can Can is an eclectic art space, so it's no surprise that the food and drink has some flair. The menu consists of handcrafted artisan pizzas, sandwiches and snacks. Pick your favorite cereal at the soda fountain and the bartender will blend it into a decadent malt with all of the fixings. Keep it kiddie or add in the hard stuff to make it an adult. Did we mention house-made soda and ice cream and a tap wall with 34 self-serve options? Yeah, they have that too.
COVID-19 Precautions
Keeping guests and staff safe and healthy is the number one priority. Precautions include temperature checks, reservations and group size limits, installation of 'bi-polar ionization technology', mobile menu and ordering, masks and social distancing.
Can Can Wonderland Parking
Can Can has an underground lot with 100 spaces as well as a limited space lot around back—look for the smokestack and the red door. You can also just hop on the Metro Transit Green Line and not worry about it.
