An Annual gala
The Minneapolis Metsquerade
The Minneapolis Metsquerade is a non-profit organization that uses 100% of donations for metastatic breast cancer research. The Minneapolis Metsquerade was created in 2018 by the late Erin Remme and has raised over ONE MILLION DOLLARS in just eight years. It is imperative that we continue to raise funds for stage IV metastatic breast cancer research.
Proceeds from this year’s 2026 Minneapolis Metsquerade event will support breast cancer research at the University of Minnesota through Vranicure.
How to help
Why We Need You
Did you know that 30% of women and men who are diagnosed with breast cancer will eventually develop stage IV metastatic breast cancer and die? That’s 116 moms, dads, brothers and sisters that are dying daily to breast cancer. Help us change this statistic by becoming an event sponsor, donating auction items, purchasing a ticket, or donating today.
Continue their legacy
Angels & Thrivers
The harsh reality of this horrific disease is that 30% percent of all people diagnosed with breast cancer will eventually develop stage IV metastatic breast cancer and die. Yet, of all the money dedicated to breast cancer research, only 2-5% is earmarked specifically for metastatic research. It’s time for us to join together and change the outcome of this deadly disease.

Seven Years & Counting
The Minneapolis Metsquerade has held six annual galas, raising over $1.6 MILLION dollars for metastatic breast cancer research. Each year the planning team thoughtfully plans a meaningful, memorable and fun evening out; building a community of support for the thrivers to know they are not alone in their battle.
This year, Minneapolis Metsquerade is honored to partner with Vranicure in support of breast cancer research at the University of Minnesota. Together, we are committed to raising awareness, building community, and helping fund continued research efforts that create hope for those impacted by metastatic cancer.
