Parts of First Avenue to open Saturday after ceiling collapse
Portions of First Avenue are scheduled to reopen this weekend after part of the main room ceiling in the Minneapolis club collapsed during a concert Wednesday.
First Avenue's website indicates its Depot Tavern has reopened and its 7th Street Entry will reopen Saturday for a scheduled concert.
The concert venue, however, is relocating a Miguel concert scheduled Saturday for the main room. The show will take place a block or so away at the State Theatre.
The next performance scheduled in the main room is next Friday but it's unclear when that space will reopen.
Three people were injured when sections of plaster ceiling collapsed Wednesday night during a Canadian metal band concert.
