Canadian Pacific Holiday Train announces 2026 Minnesota stops

The Canadian Pacific Holiday Train has released its 2026 schedule for Minnesota. Since its inception in 1999, the festive, decorated train has traveled through the United States and Canada to collect monetary and food donations for local community food banks.

To date, the initiative has raised more than $24.3 million and collected approximately 5.3 million pounds of food for those in need. The 2026 tour in Southern Minnesota includes stops in Rochester, Owatonna, Waseca, Janesville, La Crescent, Winona, and Wabasha, with musical performances by Allen Stone scheduled throughout the stops on December 11th and 12th.
