Meeting & Conventions

Welcome To Manitoba!
Located at the centre of Canada, Manitoba has the atmosphere, infrastructure and community spirit to host meetings and conventions, large and small. Modern meeting and exhibition spaces, first-rate accommodations and superb dining options are yours to enjoy at competitive prices to suit most budgets. It's been said that "the best things in life are free" and so it goes with meeting opportunities in Manitoba. Our expert convention experience, outstanding service and genuine hospitality are as bountiful and free as our blue skies and fresh air, all year-around.

The Right Connections
Manitoba's mid-continental location provides easy, convenient access for delegates traveling to our province from anywhere in the world. The 24-hour Winnipeg International Airport provides services for North American and overseas arrivals. Road and rail access is equally efficient, enabling meeting and convention delegates to arrive with ease and comfort.

So Many Choices, So Little Time
Move to an urban beat or relax in country splendor. Manitoba offers an outstanding variety of attractive options for your next meeting. Major urban centres like Winnipeg and Brandon offer countless amenities to visitors, while places like Dauphin, Portage la Prairie, Thompson or The Pas successfully combine urban style and service with the special hospitality unique to rural areas.

The Great Outdoors
In Manitoba, we put the "great" in great outdoors. Home of 100,000 lakes, our north country features a myriad of pristine lakes and rivers. Meanwhile, the southern sandy beaches are among the world's finest. Exhilarating fresh air and with as much bright sunshine as Northern California, Manitoba is a refreshing choice for your next gathering.

Impress your guests by arranging a meeting in one of Manitoba's luxury resorts, nestled amid the province's natural majesty. Get up close and personal with nature at a wilderness lodge or at a resort that offers everything from fine dining to a first-rate golf course.

Pre- and Post-Convention Activities
Fabulous golfing, interesting museums, nature hikes, sports and family fun opportunities are just a sampling of the activities enjoyed in Manitoba - each well-suited to pre- and post-convention schedules or as incentive travel packages. The many facets of Manitoba — from Arctic tundra and lush parkland to a desert and bright city lights — ensure there is an activity to suit every taste during your visit.

There are many reasons why our license plates proudly declare us to be Friendly Manitoba. Our province has earned a strong reputation as a warm-hearted community, with a remarkable volunteer contingent and a service industry that personifies the essence of hospitality. They will be your ambassadors as you embark on a memorable meeting in Manitoba.
