26 2017 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 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, aboriginal history, a skateboard park, festival stage, buskers and so much more. Water taxis and a water bus operate during the summer. In winter, there is one of the world's longest skating trails with award-winning architect- designed warming huts. The Children's Museum, Manitoba Theatre for Young People 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.
