Seth Meyers is coming to the Orpheum Theatre in January 2027, and if you are planning to stay downtown for it, the first question is usually logistics: how do you get to the show without a car? Here is what Hennepin Arts lists, and how a furnished studio at Oakland’s on 9th fits around a winter comedy night.
When is Seth Meyers Live at the Orpheum?
The Hennepin Arts event page lists two performances: Friday, Jan. 15, 2027, at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Jan. 17, 2027, at 7 p.m. The page’s date line reads “January 15 – 17, 2027,” but it lists only those two show times, so if you were hoping for a Saturday, check the page for any change. Purchases are limited to eight tickets per show, and the show is presented by Outback Presents.
Hennepin Arts describes Meyers as the Emmy Award-winning host of NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers since 2014, a former Saturday Night Live cast member and head writer, and the performer of two stand-up specials, Lobby Baby and Dad Man Walking.
Can you get to the Orpheum from Oakland’s on 9th without a car?
Oakland’s on 9th is at 215 South 9th Street, downtown. The skyway is one block away; it is not connected to the building, so you walk a block to reach it. The Orpheum is in the Hennepin Theatre District. We are not going to promise a walking time or a particular route, because conditions change with the weather, and mid-January in Minneapolis is exactly when that matters. Use the Metro Transit trip planner with your show date and time, and leave extra minutes for ice and snow boots. A 7 p.m. start also means you will be coming home in the dark, so plan your route back before you go.
If you do decide to drive for part of your trip, Hennepin Arts keeps a parking page for its theaters, and the venues page has seating and venue information for the Orpheum.
Why a furnished studio works for a winter show weekend
Oakland’s on 9th is a furnished, month-to-month studio apartment hotel in an 1889 brownstone, restored in 2019. Studios have full kitchens, and WiFi, all utilities, heat and free laundry are included. There are no contracts, so you can book a night, a week or a month. For a January comedy weekend, that means you can cook a real dinner before the show, come back to a warm studio afterward and skip the hotel-lobby routine.
If you are in town longer than a weekend, the same studio works as a base for a longer stay. Our guide to working from a coffee shop near Oakland’s on 9th is a good place to start if your trip combines a show with a few remote workdays.
