Minneapolis, MN, October 13, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Hysteria Media is excited to launch Pop-Up Minneapolis, the Twin Cities’ first premier pop-up shopping and entertainment event on Friday, October 25th at Pinstripes in Edina. Taking the “pop-up shop” phenomenon and adding elements of a girls night out, this first-of- its kind event brings more than 25 locally operated premier shops from around the Twin Cites metro, with comedy, a guest emcee and live DJ spinning tunes at a unique venue with Bocce Ball and Bowling available onsite while supporting the work of local charity, Foster My Pet.

“Pop-Up retail stores have been revolutionary for businesses around the world creating a new marketplace. We want to bring it to the next level by integrating everything you’d want in a special night out – support local businesses and mix with great entertainment,” says Mike Beltowsky of Hysteria Media and creator of Pop-Up Minneapolis.

Radio personality, Jason Nagel hosts the four-hour event along with a guest comedian and local club favorite, DJ David B spinning tunes to keep the party vibe. Guests will enjoy exclusively curated specialty cocktails created by AM Craft Spirits, Venture Photography capturing the excitement with VIP Swag bags from Realm Promotions, and local non-profit, Foster My Pet, as charity beneficiary. Butlered appetizers, product sampling (cheesecake anyone?) along with the Pop-Up Cocktail Bars. Plus, more than 25 businesses and services ready to bring their best for guests to enjoy.

“There are amazing local businesses in the Twin Cities metro and we want Pop-Up Minneapolis to be a destination to discover new designers, stores, products and services as well as have an exciting new outing with friends while doing so.
