WINNIPEG 2016-2017 | YOUR WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY 3 welcome [ ] W E L C O M E T O W I N N I P E G I know we are supposed to be a modest bunch here in Winnipeg, but we can't help but share how this city has it going on right now. The hotly anticipated expansion of the RBC Convention Centre Winnipeg is now completed, providing you with 264,000 sq. ft. of meeting space including the brand new City View Room. Conference attendees will love its massive floor to ceiling windows that allow the sunlight to pour in, while at night the lights of downtown will dazzle as your delegates take in the city from several stories up. Our world-class attractions, like the multi-award winning Journey to Churchill at Assiniboine Park Zoo and the breath-taking Canadian Museum for Human Rights, double as two of the most awe-inspiring venues on the planet – ones where swimming polar bears and soaring architecture are all part of the ambiance. My friends, this is a city on the rise. You'll see it in our city streets where North America's most-stunning array of 19th century masonry holds hands with fabulous new facades. You'll taste it in our restaurants where some of the country's most creative chefs ply their trades. And you'll recognize it in our people, who have always been known for their hospitality, but who now can't stop talking about this transformation. Come see what all the fuss is about in Winnipeg these days. We provide a window of opportunity that is simply out of sight.
