The Social District will be back this year. Starting May 1st through Oct. 6th. Visit any participating bar or restaurant to purchase your favorite adult beverage. Then get out and Discover Anoka!
Welcome to historic Downtown Anoka, a premiere event and shopping destination. We have some of the most unique shops that the Twin Cities metro area has to offer. Our community of small business owners are here to serve you, offering antique shops, clothing and gift boutiques, furniture, an ice cream shop, dessert cafe, wine bar, bars, book store and restaurants. Our historic riverfront town of Anoka is located just 20 minutes north of Minneapolis and St. Paul on highways 10 or 169.
There's always something happening in DTA. Whether it's a shopping event, the food truck festival, Riverfest, or the Christmas Tree Lighting. Downtown Anoka is the north metro entertainment district.
Anoka, Minnesota is believed to be the first city in the United States to put on a Halloween celebration over 100 years ago to divert its youngsters from Halloween pranks. When Anokans awoke to find their cows roaming Main Street, windows soaped and outhouses tipped over, they decided something had to be done.
A costume parade and block party seemed like the perfect, trick! Halloween became a wonderful distraction for our town for generations to come, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. The crisp air of the season, the creativity of the shops, the schools, costumes, laughter, food, fun, and the parties! There are so many reasons to love the month of October.
Parking is easy and free. Several ramps, open lots and street parking are available throughout our historic river town. Don’t let the downtown location fool you. There’s plenty of convenient, FREE parking located just footsteps from wherever you want to be. You may also take advantage of the two municipal parking ramps, located on (1.) Jackson Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues and (2.) 2nd Avenue between Main Street and Monroe Street.
Discover Anoka operates out of the Anoka Area Chamber of Commerce office.
