Welcome to Winnipeg! Whether you are a nature lover, enjoy the music and arts scene, or are into sports, you’ll find something fun and exciting to do while you’re here.
Nature lovers should definitely visit Assiniboine Park. Not only is it the largest park in Winnipeg with beautiful green space and river trails to enjoy, but it’s also home of the Winnipeg Zoo, the Leo Mol Sculpture Garden, English Gardens, and the Leaf (and indoor biome with amazing plants and Canada’s tallest indoor waterfall)! The park also hosts several family-friendly free outdoor events throughout the summer such as concerts, movies, and festivals. You can learn more by visiting https://www.assiniboinepark.ca/events/summer-entertainment-series.
For culture lovers, you will want to check out Winnipeg’s impressive museum and arts scene. Whether you visit the Canadian Museum for Human Rights (https://humanrights.ca/), or the Winnipeg Art Gallery’s Qaumajuq (https://www.wag.ca/), you’ll get a deeper understanding of Indigenous culture and Canada’s history.
We also have several festivals throughout the summer such as the Jazz ( https://www.jazzwinnipeg.com/) and Folk Festival (https://www.winnipegfolkfestival.ca/) for music lovers, the Fringe Festival (https://www.winnipegfringe.com/) for theatre lovers, and Folklorama (https://folklorama.ca/) which is a multi-cultural festival that showcases food, music, and dance from around the world!
Finally, sports enthusiasts can go cheer on any of our professional sports teams. In the summer, you can watch the Sea Bears play basketball (https://www.seabears.ca/), Valour FC play soccer (https://valourfc.canpl.ca/), the Bombers play football (https://www.bluebombers.com/), or the Goldeyes play baseball (https://www.goldeyes.com/).
