26 2016 TRAVEL TRADE PLANNER Winnipeg The Forks The Forks is Manitoba's number one tourist destination, attracting more than four million visitors annually. The 54-acre site offers year-round shopping at The Forks Market and Johnston Terminal, along with a variety of dining experiences, including organic bakery goods, ethnic cuisine, casual restaurants, fine dining and a new food hall that includes a craft beer and wine kiosk. There is a constantly changing slate of entertainment, events and many unique attractions, including a river walk, plaza, Parks Canada theatrical plays, indigenous history, a skateboard park, festival stage, buskers, and so much more. Boat tours and a water bus operate during the summer. In winter, there is one of the world's longest skating trails with award-winning warming huts designed by international architects. The Children's Museum, Manitoba Theatre for Young People, Inn at the Forks, and the Canadian Museum for Human Rights are also on site. The Forks is ideally suited for any itinerary — whether booking an organized tour through Parks Canada, organizing a group meal or allotting free time for delegates to discover Winnipeg's gathering place for more than 6,000 years.
