Whether you are planning a dine around for
your delegates, or have an evening available
to explore parts of the city, Winnipeg's unique
neighbourhoods provide a fun place to relax,
unwind and be entertained.
Downtown
Winnipeg's hub of commerce and entertainment features
a stunning mix of heritage buildings alongside modern
entertainment centres and hotels. It's home to Bell MTS
Place — one of North America's busiest arenas — along
with newer developments like the trendy ALT Hotel,
recently-expanded RBC Convention Centre Winnipeg and
the SHED (Sports, Hospitality and Entertainment District).
Nearby, the Winnipeg Art Gallery, Plug In Institute of
Contemporary Art and The University of Winnipeg campus
provide some artistic flair.
Corydon Avenue
If people watching from sunny patios is your
thing head to Corydon Avenue, Winnipeg's
former Little Italy. Its main strip spans
approximately 15 city blocks and is lined with
charming bakeries, bars, and boutiques. During
the summer months the area is crawling with
locals leisurely strolling along with gelatos in
hand, a Winnipeg pastime that delegates will
really savour.
Osborne Village
The invitingly walkable stretch of this boho-chic
enclave boasts a block party vibe, especially in the
summer during street fests. Located just south of
downtown, small-scale boutiques, consignment shops
and record stores stand hand-in-hand with some of
Winnipeg's best restaurants and bars. It all makes for
a gem of a place to visit, night or day.
