Prince fans have a chance to stay in her famous “Purple Rain” home in Minneapolis because she’s headed to Airbnb… in celebration of the film and soundtrack’s 40th anniversary.
The late singer bought the place in 2015 and it’s been closed to the public ever since… but now it’s finally opening its doors, courtesy of some members of the band Prince’s Revolution.
Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman are hosting overnight stays, and the lucky ones will get to experience a night in the life of The Kid.
Airbnb tells us that the “Purple Rain” home was recently restored and decorated with pieces and memorabilia from Prince’s personal collection… including a closet full of his most legendary outfits.
The downstairs of the house is adorned with purple velvet wallpaper and there’s a vintage 1980s stereo loaded with Prince-inspired tunes.
The spa looks like something out of the “When Doves Cry” music video…complete with a clawfoot tub and stained glass…plus a plush purple robe and some lavender bath bombs.
Inside the music lounge, guests can play the drums, shred the guitar, tickle the ivories and sing the chorus of “Purple Rain” along with pre-recorded audio from Prince himself.
Prince’s room is just like the one in “Purple Rain”… and it’s decorated with his personal collection of ribbons – remember those things?!? – plus one of Prince’s original demo recordings.
People can request to reserve the “Purple Rain” house on Airbnb from October 2nd at 6am PT until October 6th at 11:59pm PT… and guests will be selected at random.
Good luck!!!
