There is so much to be grateful for!

This Thanksgiving, we’re celebrating the people who make downtown Winnipeg such a special place.

To our incredible Downtown Winnipeg BIZ team, the business owners and employees who work downtown, the residents who call it home, the locals and visitors who spend time here, and everyone who supports and champions the heart of our city — thank you!

We hope you have a great Thanksgiving Day! Our office is closed today and reopens tomorrow.

Even though today’s weather is a little cold and rainy (what a change from yesterday’s hot and ☀️ ), we still think it’s a great day to get outside and explore!

What do your long weekend plans include? We hope you !

Dinner with a view? How about a view that moves, giving you a 360-degree bird's-eye view of downtown Winnipeg from 30 floors up?

We're so excited to welcome Dos Pampas Skyline Restaurant to Fort Garry Place (83 Fort Street)!

This restaurant puts a new spin on going out for dinner, serving up South American traditions and Argentinian flavours with Canadian prairie ingredients and influences in its steakhouse and kitchen. It's full of great local art, stunning views (obviously), and offers a super unique experience in the heart of the city and up in the clouds!

Head to dospampasskyline.ca to book a reservation Tuesday through Saturday evenings!

Pihtikwe Skatepark has officially opened at 323 Portage Avenue and is currently open Thursday-Saturday. This is great timing, as it provides an opportunity to skate all winter indoors! A lot of hard work and heart went into this space.

Pihtikwe empowers marginalized youth through physical activity by fostering a safer, supportive, recreational environment. You can support their work by purchasing merch, donating on their website, or dropping in for a skate!
