With world-class attractions, a rave-worthy culinary scene, a legendary arts community that always takes centre stage, and an economy that keeps on growing, Winnipeg has gone from being simply the centre of the continent, to the centre of attention. But you don't have to take our word for it, take a listen to what Winnipeg's mayor, Brian Bowman, has to say.
From the moment you land to the instant you depart, Winnipeg James Armstrong Richardson International Airport is committed to providing an excellent experience for all delegates. Allow Scott Marohn, Director of Air Service and Product Development, to show you around the airport and inform you of all of the wonderful services they can offer.
Did you know that Winnipeg has more than 6,000 years of history and is a city that speaks over 100 languages? We are a four-season destination with a cosmopolitan flair and warm, welcoming spirit. Our Winnipeg colleagues and partners are excited to take you on a whirlwind tour of the city.
As Canada's fourth largest publicly owned convention centre, Winnipeg's premiere event facility houses 264,000 sq.ft. of unique and distinct meeting rooms that offer you unparalleled flexibility. Patrick Hauta, Sales Manager at the RBC Convention Centre, will take you through the stunning spaces you can expect to find at the convention centre.
Winnipeg's downtown is a hub of activity, boasting a vibrant Sports, Hospitality, and Entertainment District (SHED), the RBC Convention Centre, over 1900 hotel rooms, as well as a multitude of restaurants and attractions. Tourism Winnipeg's own Grace Hicks is excited to show you what makes our downtown the ideal spot to host your meeting.
This area is brimming with everything that convention centre delegates are looking for, be it dining, breweries and distilleries, five-star attractions, to the best shopping in central Canada. It is also just ten minutes from downtown and a five-minute drive to the Winnipeg Richardson International Airport. Tourism Winnipeg's own Grace Hicks will give you a run-down of what you can find in the St. James District.
The Victoria Inn Hotel & Convention Centre is Manitoba's largest convention hotel and the epicentre of the city's St. James Conference and Hotel District, as well as being located conveniently by the James A. Richardson International Airport. Known for their superior customer service, their team of event professionals has the experience, resources, and creativity to help you host an unforgettable event. Let Sonny Palermo, General Manager, take you on a site tour of the facility.
