Winnipeg Comiccon is a 3-day pop-culture fan convention that showcases artists and products from entertainment genres like Sci-fi, Horror, Anime, video games, table-top games, cosplay, and of course, comic books.
It features a large array of exhibits with several companies demonstrating their wares, and a few vehicles or set pieces from film or television are on display — a shopping experience like no other, aimed at fans looking for games, T-shirts, comics, toys, statues, replicas, and more collectible items.
Fans have the opportunity to meet their favourite creators from the world of comics, get autographs, buy a sketch, or thank them for their work.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Additionally, one of the biggest draws is meeting the personalities behind favourite TV shows and movies. Celebrities participate in autograph sessions, photo ops, and appear on stages that accommodate hundreds to thousands of fans.
Fans are treated to a variety of panel discussions and workshops that help further promote comics, costuming, gaming, and pop culture in general (included with any general admission).
Fans are encouraged (but not obliged) to come dressed as their favourite pop-culture characters — from movies, TV, video games, or comics.
It all culminates at the costume contest, the big costuming competition that brings in judges, over 50 competitors, and hundreds of fans cheering them on as they hit the stage.

Any costumes that are culturally offensive or appropriative will be refused entry. We aim to make this a safe, fun, and inclusive environment for everyone; we appreciate your cooperation in making this happen.

If in doubt, leave the costume accessories at home. Oversized props may be temporarily held by The Wicked Bazaar team for safety. Costumes that violate this policy will be refused entry.

Free Slurpee or Hot Chocolate at 7-Eleven This Halloween
2025-10-31 | Multiple Locations
Share This Story
🎃 Free Slurpee or Hot Chocolate at 7-Eleven This Halloween
Here’s something fun for Halloween night! On Friday, October 31, 2025, anyone who stops by a 7-Eleven Canada store in costume can grab a free small Slurpee® or hot chocolate — no purchase needed. It’s a simple little treat that makes the night even better for kids, families, or anyone out enjoying the spooky vibe.
🎃 Why This Is Worth Knowing
Just show up in costume at a participating 7-Eleven and you’ll get a free small Slurpee or hot chocolate. That’s it — no strings attached.
It’s a light-hearted way to kick off trick-or-treating or warm up after a night of it.
The offer is happening all across Canada at participating stores, so chances are good there’s one nearby.

✅ Quick Details

Date: Friday, October 31, 2025
What’s Free: A small Slurpee® or hot chocolate for anyone in costume
Where: Participating 7-Eleven Canada locations (best to double-check your local store)
Limit: One per costumed guest, while supplies last
Bonus: Part of 7-Eleven’s fall-themed promos, so there might be other seasonal snacks or drinks worth checking out too.

☕ Handy Tips

Drop by earlier in the evening before supplies run out.
Pick your drink based on the weather — hot chocolate if it’s chilly, Slurpee if the fall air still feels mild.
If you’re going out with kids, this is an easy stop before or after trick-or-treating.
Snap a photo in costume — people love seeing creative Halloween looks (and free drink wins).

👻 A Small but Fun Halloween Surprise
It’s always nice when a big brand joins in on community fun instead of just selling stuff. This giveaway adds a little extra excitement to Halloween night — something small, simple, and cheerful that helps spread the spirit of the season.

2025 MB Hydro Santa Claus Parade - Grey Cup Edition
2025-11-15 16:00 - 19:00 (America/Chicago) | Portage & Main, 201 Portage Ave, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
Share This Story
Manitoba Hydro Santa Claus Parade – Grey Cup Edition
Date: Saturday, November 15, 2025, at 5:00 PM
Venue: Downtown Winnipeg (Portage Avenue)
Get ready for a truly special kickoff to the holiday season as the Manitoba Hydro Santa Claus Parade – Grey Cup Edition takes over downtown Winnipeg on November 15 at 5 PM.
This year’s parade merges two of the city’s favorite traditions – the magic of the holidays and the excitement of the Grey Cup Festival. The 2025 edition celebrates the 112th Grey Cup, bringing together Santa and football in a dazzling show of lights, music, and community spirit.

What Makes This Year’s Parade Different

Grey Cup Theme: The entire parade embraces the 112th Grey Cup, with floats, costumes, and decorations inspired by the big game. Expect CFL-themed displays alongside classic holiday favorites.
Grey Cup as Grand Marshal: The Grey Cup itself will serve as this year’s Grand Marshal, symbolizing the connection between holiday cheer and national pride.
Festival Energy: Because it’s part of Grey Cup week, the streets will be filled with fan zones, football-themed music, and larger crowds joining the celebration.
Expanded Downtown Experience: Road closures and block parties create a festival atmosphere throughout downtown, offering more places to explore and enjoy live entertainment before and after the parade.
A Once-in-a-Generation Celebration: This rare crossover between Winnipeg’s biggest holiday event and Canada’s biggest sporting event makes 2025’s parade a milestone moment for the city.

Location & Route
The parade will light up downtown Winnipeg, following the traditional route along Portage Avenue. Spectators are encouraged to arrive early as thousands are expected due to the Grey Cup Festival.
Why You Should Go

Completely Free: Open to everyone – no tickets needed.
Perfect for Families: A must-see event for kids and adults alike.
Holiday Meets Football: A one-night fusion of two Canadian traditions.
Festive Photo Ops: From illuminated floats to football mascots and Santa himself, there’s no shortage of picture-perfect moments.

Visitor Tips

Arrive early to secure a good view – the parade starts promptly at 5 PM.
Dress warmly; Winnipeg nights in November can be chilly.
Consider public transit or walking, as parking will be limited due to festival road closures.
Bring your camera or phone for photos of the Grey Cup and Santa’s arrival.
Check downtown restaurants and cafés for parade-night specials and warm treats.

2025 Linden Lights
2025-12-01 - 2025-12-31 | Lindenwoods, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
Linden Lights: A Winnipeg Holiday Classic
If you’ve lived in Winnipeg for a while, you’ve probably heard someone say, “Have you gone to Linden Lights yet?” And if you haven’t… yeah, it’s worth it.
Every December, the Lindenwoods neighbourhood turns into a full-on holiday light zone, with residents going all out decorating their houses and even entire streets. It’s free, it’s low-pressure, and it somehow manages to feel festive without being chaotic — which is honestly kind of rare this time of year.
What to Know (Nothing Fancy, Just the Basics)What: Linden LightsWhere: Linden Woods, southwest WinnipegWhen: December (usually early to mid-month)Cost: FreeBest time to go: After dark — roughly 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM

The Streets Everyone Talks About
The fun part is spotting the themed streets. Neighbours coordinate decorations and turn whole blocks into mini attractions:

🍭 Candy Cane Lane (Foxmeadow Drive) – Exactly what it sounds like. Red, white, and aggressively festive.
🐻 Polar Bear Land (Hennessey Drive) – Glowing polar bears everywhere. Very on-brand for Winnipeg winter.
🏠 Gingerbread Lane / Nutcracker Lane – These pop up depending on the year, but they always feel like something out of a Christmas storybook.

Why People Keep Going Back
Linden Lights is perfect if you want something Christmassy without committing to tickets, schedules, or standing outside freezing for an hour. You just drive slowly through the neighbourhood, sip whatever warm drink you brought along, and take it all in.
Some houses have lights synced to music, some go full animated display mode, and others just quietly shine — but together it works. There’s also a friendly competition vibe, with residents aiming for “best house” or “best street” bragging rights through the Linden Woods Community Centre.
A Couple Local Tips: Take it slow, be patient with traffic, and be respectful — people actually live here. If you see signs about tuning your radio to a certain station, do it. And if you’re looking for a route map, here it is. If you’re craving something festive, free, and very Winnipeg, Linden Lights checks all the boxes. It’s one of those traditions that doesn’t try too hard — and that’s exactly why it works.
