Paisley Park

7801 Audubon Rd, Chanhassen, MN 55317 · Chanhassen, MN

Why you should go…

Prince's private estate and recording complex in Chanhassen is now one of music's great pilgrimages, guided tours take you through his actual studios, soundstage, wardrobe and the Purple Rain motorcycle. It's intimate, a little surreal and unforgettable for any music fan. Tours sell out, so book ahead.

Good to know

General tours guidance

Habits that pay off across this whole category, not rules for this one venue. Always check the official site for the specifics.

  • Confirm the meeting point

    It is often a corner, a lobby, or a dock rather than the address you searched for. Check it the night before.

  • Small groups fill first

    In high season the intimate departures sell out well before the big-bus options do.

  • Ask how much is on foot

    Knowing how much of the route is walking, standing, or outdoors tells you what to wear and carry.

  • Read the weather policy

    Cancellation windows and rain rules vary by operator, and they are easier to find before you pay than after.
