Whether you're coming for the afternoon tailgate festivities or staying for the evening concert, there's something for all ages to enjoy.

Entertainment & Admission

The celebration begins in the Tailgate Area with free cultural performances, community entertainment, and family-friendly activities throughout the afternoon. Enjoy performances by Sweetgrass Women, Mason Hoop Dancers, Kalipayan Performing Arts Canada, and the Flying Lion Dance Troupe, along with appearances by Those Guys.

Families can also enjoy face painters, a street magician, balloon twisters, interactive games, a kids' zone, and community showcases. Bring the whole family, soak in the festive atmosphere, and make unforgettable memories as Winnipeg comes together to celebrate Canada Day.

The evening continues on the mainstage with an exciting lineup of live music featuring Mise En Scene, Don Amero, Chad Brownlee, and headliners Down With Webster. With high-energy performances and crowd-favourite hits, it's a night that will have you singing along before ending with a spectacular fireworks show lighting up the night sky.

Admission
  • The event is free to attend.
  • Visitors are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item in support of Harvest Manitoba.
  • No ticket is required to access the Tailgate Area from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
  • Free mainstage tickets and $5 floor tickets (with proceeds supporting Harvest Manitoba) are available in advance.
  • A ticket guarantees entry to the mainstage area until 8:00 PM.
  • After that, entry is available on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to capacity, with no ticket required.
Parking & Transportation

Free parking is available around the stadium, subject to availability. Winnipeg Transit will release its transportation schedule approximately two weeks before Canada Day. Visitors are encouraged to walk or bike to the stadium when possible, and complimentary bike valet service will be available.

Important Parking & Traffic Notice

Due to City of Winnipeg construction, eastbound access from University Crescent onto Abinojii Mikanah is closed until approximately August 3. To help avoid delays after the event, visitors are encouraged not to park in lots accessed from University Crescent. Instead, enter the stadium via Chancellor Matheson Road and use the U Lot or Soccer Lot, based on availability. After the celebration, traffic exiting via University Crescent will be directed northbound onto Pembina Highway, so please allow additional travel time.
