Paisley Park is Opening its Doors to Prince Fans For One Day
Five years to the day after Prince died, fans will be able to tour his famed Minnesota complex.
April 21 marks the fifth anniversary of the shocking death of Prince. In honor of the artist known as the Purple One, the Paisley Park Atrium, his home studio and "creative sanctuary," is opening its doors to fans to pay tribute. Make an advance reservation at the official Paisley Park website.
“On the fifth anniversary of the passing of the incomparable Prince, Paisley Park, his home and creative sanctuary, is opening its doors for fans to pay tribute and celebrate his life,” the announcement reads. “The Paisley Park Atrium, 7801 Audubon Road, will be open for free visitation on Wednesday April 21 from 9:00am – 9:00pm. Advance reservations are required. Guests are also welcome to leave flowers, mementos, and other memorial items in front of the Love Symbol statue outside the Paisley Park main entrance.”
In the years after his death, the Prince estate has partnered with Warner and Sony Music to reissue three classic albums: 1999, Purple Rain, and Sign O' the Times.
“Prince’s passing remains incomprehensible to all of us,” said Alan Seiffert, Paisley Park Executive Director. “We celebrate his life and legacy every day at Paisley Park, a place that Prince wanted to share with the world. So, on this day especially, we acknowledge the incredible force and inspiration Prince is in people’s lives and open up our doors for them to pay their respects.”
