Absolutely stunning. There aren’t many words necessary. The entry process is seamless (drive in, talk to the security at the booth, go on to the parking lot). You get to peruse the gift shop if you’re early, and then you go on the tour where you get to see a lot of Prince’s happy place. You also get to play ping-pong on his table in one of the recording studios. Just do it. You won’t regret it.
Wonderful experience! Staff was welcoming, professional and were true fans of Prince. Tour guide Tommy was great. The ultimate experience went by so fast could have stayed longer. I’m glad they made everyone lock their phones for a majority of the tour. I hope to visit again in the future.
We did the Ultimate Tour. It’s a very interesting place. I learned an appreciation for Prince! But much of the information was above me since I am not a Super Fan. Name dropping of other artists and the brands of guitars or studio equipment left me bored but it had the Super Fans in a frazzle.
Amazing to visit Paisley Park. We did the 120-minute VIP tour, which was fascinating. You found yourself feeling very close to the artist and Prince’s creativity.
Just so you know in advance, phones are placed in sealed bags a d handed back to you until the final room, as Prince had banned mobiles at the time, and that works. Plenty in the final room, and it means you can immerse yourself in the experience and listen to your tour guide without distraction.
We had Domino. They were great and full of knowledge about Prince’s fashion journey and the iconography. Just ask if you have questions …
My shirt for the day included in the photos … it is 36 years old …!
A great experience.
So intense. Prince’s presence is so strong. You can feel his spirit in the studios and near his mad cat guitar and his pianos. Beautiful place. Meticulous attention to detail every where. Unbelievable how much his genius comes through in every aspect of this fabulous compound. Must go if you can.
Paisley Park is a must-visit for any Prince fan. The moment you step inside, you’re enveloped in the vibrant essence of his music and artistry. The museum is filled with memorabilia, including outfits, instruments, and personal artifacts that tell the story of his extraordinary career.
The guided tours are informative and passionate, providing insights into Prince’s creative process and his life. The atmosphere is electric, filled with a sense of nostalgia and reverence for his legacy.
Whether you’re exploring the studios, the soundstage, or the private collection, every corner of Paisley Park resonates with his genius. It’s a heartfelt tribute that every Prince enthusiast will appreciate. Highly recommended!
Loved the Paisley Park two hour tour! Worth it for Prince fans. Be prepared to lock up your phones but it was worth it to be in the moment and listen to everything the tour guides had to say. There is so much love for Prince and it’s amazing to be a part of his home and workplace.
I watched Purple Rain on the big screen at Paisley Park for the 40th anniversary celebration. I felt like I was watching him in concert. The tour is amazing, up close, and personal. People complain about the gift shop selling memorabilia, but how do you think they support what they’re doing here? I stood where Prince lived, breathed, created, and died. Priceless. Go. It’s amazing.
