Bring It Home
conventions
Our Bring It Home program encourages
local community leaders in business,
academia and industry associations to step
forward as ambassadors for Winnipeg.
As advocates for our city, they work with our Bring It
Home team to showcase why associations or groups
should choose Winnipeg for national and international
meetings and conventions. Since its inception in 2012,
Bring It Home helped attract 110 meetings to our city.
Those meetings meant approximately 54,700 delegates
coming to Winnipeg, resulting in 87,600 room nights and
an estimated direct spend of more than $58.1 million.
