You Can Book Prince's "Purple Rain" House on Airbnb - AFAR
"This Minneapolis film house, long a pilgrimage site for the artist's fans, has been turned into a limited Airbnb Icons stay offering 25 one-night bookings. The interior includes an exact replica of the Kid's bedroom with sheet music, instruments, lavender-hued lighting and a mural of eyes over the bed; a bathroom tribute to the “When Doves Cry” video featuring a claw-foot tub, stained glass, plush purple robes and lavender bath bombs; a closet stocked with ’80s outfits, wigs, accessories and makeup; and original costume pieces—such as the purple trench coat and ruffled white shirt—displayed behind glass. Music-centric touches include a vintage ’80s stereo loaded with inspirational tracks, a lounge with instruments and instructions (including how to play the song’s chorus with pre-recorded audio of the Kid), and the artist's personal tape collection with a demo recording. The stays run between October 26 and December 14, 2024, reservation requests open October 2–6, winners may bring up to three guests, the cost is $7 per person, and guests are responsible for travel to Minneapolis." - Bailey Berg
