The State of Hockey – Minnesota

Minnesota, known as the State of Hockey, has become synonymous with the passion for the sport. No other state embraces the sport quite like the Land of 10,000 Lakes. This goes beyond the accolades of professional teams, collegiate programs, and NHL success stories. The heart of our identity lies in the countless ice skating facilities across the state. In the Twin Cities alone, the number of ice skating facilities outnumbers the number of movie theaters by two to one.

In Minnesota, the love for hockey transcends statistics and championships. It’s ingrained in the fabric of our communities, where hometown hockey games are as integral as family dinners. It’s not just about hockey players; it’s about fostering a way of life where the rink is a gathering place, a shared passion, and a cherished part of our existence. Add leisure ice skating, figure skating, and numerous youth skating programs, and Minnesota is indeed the state where hockey and other on-ice sports are. Join us in connecting your brand with the heartfelt experiences that unfold in the lively rinks of the State of Hockey.
