SF 1910 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Place of entertainment requirement to provide access to potable water at events

This bill requires venues hosting entertainment events (like concerts or festivals) to provide attendees with access to drinkable water during the event. Specifically, it mandates that venues must either offer free bottled water, allow attendees to bring their own bottled water, or provide water refill stations for attendees to fill empty bottles. The requirement applies to all "places of entertainment" as defined in Minnesota law during active entertainment. This policy directly affects event venues across Minnesota, ensuring basic hydration access for attendees without imposing cost on them.
