SUMMARY:Solar Eclipse Viewing Party and Livestream
DESCRIPTION:Solar Eclipse Viewing Party and LivestreamShare This Story\nExperience a Partial Solar Eclipse in Winnipeg with Safe Viewing Options \nThe Manitoba Museum\, Royal Astronomical Society of Canada (RASC) Winnipeg Centre and Assiniboine Park Conservancy are hosting a free Solar Eclipse Viewing Party on Monday\, April 8th! This exciting event offers two ways for enthusiasts to witness this celestial phenomenon: \n\n\nAttend the Viewing Party: Join us at The Leaf in Assiniboine Park from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm. View the eclipse safely through special solar telescopes provided by the RASC. \n\n\nWatch the Livestream: Can't make it to the park? Catch the eclipse live on Dome@Home's Facebook or Youtube channel from 12:30 pm to 3:15 pm. In case of cloudy skies in Winnipeg\, the stream will switch to a clear location elsewhere in Canada. \n\n\nThe article continues below \n\n\n\nWitness the Sun Partially Obscured by the Moon \nOn April 8th\, North America will experience a partial solar eclipse\, where the moon partially covers the sun\, casting a shadow on Earth. This event provides a rare opportunity to observe the sun safely with proper precautions. \n\n\n\n\nSafety First: Secure Your Solar Eclipse Glasses \nLooking directly at the sun\, even during an eclipse\, can cause permanent eye damage. To ensure safe viewing\, the Manitoba Museum Shop offers certified solar eclipse glasses for purchase at $3 per pair (discounts available for bulk orders). Glasses will also be available for purchase on-site at the Museum Shop and Reception Desk. \nDon't miss this chance to witness a spectacular celestial event! \n\n\n\n\nUpcoming Events\n\n	\n		\n		\n		\n			\n					\n							08\n							January\n							2026\n							\n							\n				\n		\n			Free Entry to Manitoba Parks for 1 Year Starting April 1\, 2025Free Entry to Manitoba Parks for a Year Starting April 1\, 2025 Free Entry ito \nFind out more\n                        \n                        \n                        \n                        Multiple Locations\,\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n	\n		\n		\n		\n			\n					\n							17\n							April\n							2026\n							\n							\n				\n		\n			Weekend Round-Up: 10+ Free Events in Winnipeg April 17-19A list of free things to do in Winnipeg during the weekend including activities for the family\, live music\, arts\, movies\, and more. \nFind out more\n                        \n                        \n                        \n                        Winnipeg\, Manitoba\,\n\n\n	Winnipeg\,\n\n	Manitoba\n\n\n	Canada\n\n\n+ Google Map\n	\n	\n		\n		\n		\n			\n					\n							19\n							April\n							2026\n							\n							\n				\n		\n			Community Movie Night at East End Community CentreEast End Community Club Free Movie Nights – Fall 2025 to Spring 2026 Dates: Sept \nFind out more\n                        \n                        \n                        \n                        East End Community Club\,\n\n517 Pandora Ave E.\n	\n		\n		Winnipeg\,\n\n\n	R2C 0A5\n\n	CA\n\n\n+ Google Map\n	\n	\n		\n		\n		\n			\n					\n							21\n							April\n							2026\n							\n							\n				\n		\n			Free Admission to Winnipeg Police MuseumThe Winnipeg Police Museum offers free admission and features artifacts dating back to the late 1800s\, vintage vehicles and motorcycles\, and stories highlighting the history and service of the Winnipeg Police Service\, located at 245 Smith Street and open Tuesday to Friday from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. \nFind out more\n                        \n                        \n                        \n                        Winnipeg Police Museum\,\n\n245 Smith St.\n	\n		\n		Winnipeg\,\n\n	Manitoba\n\n\n	Canada\n\n\n+ Google Map\n	\n	\n		\n		\n		\n			\n					\n							24\n							April\n							2026\n							\n							\n				\n		\n			Free Admission for Youth 14 and under at RodaramaHere’s a short\, SEO-friendly excerpt you can use: \n**Looking for things to do in Winnipeg this weekend?** Discover a mix of free events\, markets\, live music\, family activities\, and major attractions happening April 25.
