Winnipeg's Unique Off-site Venues Your imagination can run wild at The Manitoba Museum, as you find yourself hosting a private dinner alongside a glistening 17th century ship, or enjoy a reception underneath the illuminated lights of the aurora borealis. The Nonsuch Gallery will transport your reception back in time for a memorable evening exploring the replica circa 1600's port town, along with the ship itself, which the museum will house with costumed interpreters. For a journey through space and time, hitch a ride at the museum's planetarium and take your guests around the cosmos as you give them something that's really out of this world. Walk through the countless museum galleries where staggering dioramas of the region's history, including a life-size buffalo hunt, provide the perfect backdrop for mingling, and then dine in Alloway Hall, which is undergoing a massive expansion that is expected to be completed by the end of 2016. Complete an impeccable experience by having dessert in turn-of-the-century Winnipeg, where this gallery of the roaring '20s will make everything extra sweet.
