The Minneapolis Polar Plunge: Pick Your Plunge Day Event! – Lake Nokomis, Minneapolis, MN

Special Olympics Minnesota – The Minneapolis Polar Plunge 

The Polar Plunge is back in Minneapolis for the 17th year in a row! There’s something for everyone during the fun-filled Plunge weekend in Minneapolis, so check out the events below and register to be a part of the excitement! The Minneapolis Polar Plunge is moving to Lake Nokomis! In its 16-year history, 50,000 people have raised over $15 million at the Minneapolis Plunge. As more and more Plungers join in the fun, we have been slowly but surely outgrowing Thomas Beach on Bde Maka Ska. A Plunge at Lake Nokomis will offer everything we love about Bde Maka Ska—and then some! A bigger footprint will allow for more excitement, better amenities and enhanced shuttles. In 2023, you can expect additional food trucks, a return to live music and bigger tents. This will be the biggest Polar Plunge in Minnesota’s history, and we can’t wait for you to be a part of it!
