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 (which will reopen in July 2018) will transport your reception back in time within a circa 1600's port town, allowing guest to also hop aboard the Nonsuch itself, which is a life-sized replica of the famed 1650s ship that sailed to what is now Canada in 1670. Walk through the countless museum galleries where staggering dioramas of the region's history – including a life-size bison hunt – provide the perfect backdrop for mingling. Then, dine in Alloway Hall, which has undergone a massive expansion that was completed in 2017. For a journey through space and time, hitch a ride at the museum's Planetarium and give your guests a 3D experience that's really out of this world. Wrap up an impeccable experience by having dessert in turn-of-the-century Winnipeg, where a gallery depicting the roaring '20s will make everything extra sweet.
