It is one of Western Canada’s largest agricultural events and the largest annual event to be held in Brandon. It is also one of only two fairs in Canada to receive Royal designation from Queen Elizabeth II and has been recognized as one of the Top 100 Events in North America, receiving numerous awards from the tourism industry.
The Royal Manitoba Winter Fair returns to Brandon from March 27 to April 1, 2023. Today is the last day to get your tickets at the early bird price. You can head to RMWF to get those tickets today.
Mark Humphries with the RMWF says this is always a must-attend event.
"There are so many things to do, it is the biggest event in Brandon every single year," said Humphries. "We have people coming from everywhere, our hotels are always jam-packed, and it's such a great event for the entire family, young or old."
At the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair, you can expect to see world-class show jumping, heavy horse competitions, livestock sales and displays, a quality hands-on agricultural education program, exceptional live entertainers, over 300 commercial and agricultural exhibits, and much more.
A key attraction is the Royal Farm Yard. It features 44,000 SF and it's home to the petting zoo, live animal shows on the TD AG Action Stage, and cattle shows. There's also the horse show and it's Manitoba's #1 equestrian show. Competition for that starts early each day in both the Westoba Place main arena and Westoba Ag Centre, with top-level show jumping. Westoba Place has 5000 seats so there are plenty of options.
