WELCOME to the 59th annual Red River Exhibition starting Friday, June 18 and concluding Sunday, June 27. The EX is the largest annual attraction in Manitoba attracting an average 200,000 visitors to the 10 days annual event.
The entire family focused event is held at Red River Exhibition Park located on the west side of Winnipeg, Manitoba at 3977 Portage Ave just west of Highway 1 (Trans Canada) and Highway 100 (Perimeter) intersection.
While The EX attracts teens and young adults, the Exhibition’s main focus over all these years has actually been on families. This year we offer new family attractions in the Prairie Town Adventure. The Prairie Town Adventure is geared specifically for children that invite the participation in a myriad of interactive activities. These include wall building and other construction work, egg gathering and other farm chores, and very basic firefighter training. The Prairie Town Adventure area also features a mock Farmers Market’ where children can ‘sell’ their produce, a Rescue Station, and an Itty Bitty City.
The EX will also offer ongoing child-friendly entertainment on a new outdoor stage you will find Splash & Boots, Dora the Explorer, Doo Doo the Clown, Freddy Fusion, Penelope the Clown and many, many more will be performing there.
All of the activities and amenities in the family area are designed for comfort, security and fun.
