At the X, 500 staff members are donning custom purple T-shirts, while Coleman is encouraging everyone else to wear purple that day to honor Prince. Several iconic St. Paul buildings will be lit in purple, including the Cathedral of St. Paul, Landmark Center, the St. Paul Hotel, Ordway Center for the Performing Arts, James J. Hill Center, George Latimer Central Library, 317 on Rice Park and Herbie’s on the Park.

The venue is hosting a free outdoor pre-concert party starting at 4 p.m. on Kellogg Boulevard between gates 1 and 2. There will be a DJ, area radio stations, and food and beverage options. It’s open to the public, whether or not they have tickets for the show.

The X will also unveil its permanent tribute to Prince at Gate 1 of the arena. It’s a replica Minnesota Wild jersey with Prince’s love symbol that was presented to the artist in 2004, when he headlined the arena three nights in a row. Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 Club, on the club level, has a special menu planned with some of Prince’s favorite dishes and other selections created by his personal chefs at Paisley Park.
