The EX 2026 is set to include some incredibly entertaining and talented local musicians and performers on our stages! Each stage has a dance floor so get ready to kick up your heels!
DID YOU KNOW?? Over the past few years, the live music industry has been dealing with rising costs, higher insurance premiums, higher interest rates for financing shows and tours, and this cost is passed onto the hiring client (Red River Exhibition Association).
The EX is one of only two fairs left in Canada that does not receive operational funding from the government. Red River Exhibition Park, with events running over 240 days a year, is operated by the Red River Exhibition Association (RREA). It truly operates to provide memorable experiences to Winnipeg residents and visitors. Just as our motto says, “Creating Memories and Building Community – One Event at a Time!”. ALL of the costs of bringing in all musical acts, artists, attractions, displays, etc. for The EX lies with the RREA.
It’s common for large fairs to charge an extra admission ticket price to access the headlining concerts, but The EX doesn’t charge extra to see musical performances or attractions. Your gate admission allows you to take in all the shows and experiences on the grounds at The EX.
*REMINDER: Pets are NOT allowed at The EX, and it is not a suitable environment for their enjoyment. We love your pets as much as you do, but please leave them comfortably at home. (Service animals are permitted.)
*NOTE: Pets are NOT allowed at The EX, and it is not a suitable environment for their enjoyment. We love your pets as much as you do, but please leave them comfortably at home. (Service animals are permitted.) For more information, please see question A-4 of the FAQ.

Ivan Flett Memorial Dancers are three siblings from Winnipeg, Manitoba who share a passion for dance, not just any dance it’s all about the Red River Jig!
Michael, Jacob and Cieanna Harris began dancing at the young age of five years old. Michael being the oldest started performing his own solo shows, Jacob followed his brother footprints and they became a duo show, Cieanna enjoyed watching her brothers perform, she learned and they became a trio group and they have been inseparable since then.
They perform traditional dances of the Red River Jig mixed with modern dancing known as the hip hop jig. Through their gift of dance they have had great opportunities to travel the world and they hold numerous achievements and awards.
Their main focus is to attract youth through the rhythm and style of the hip hop jig. They hope to motivate and inspire people of all ages, and bring awareness that their culture is going strong and continues to be ambitious with this dance and music.
Formally known as the Slick and Lil J Show, back in 2012 they lost one of their biggest fans and proud supporter, Grandpa Ivan Flett passed away, it was with great sadness but an honour to rename themselves the Ivan Flett Memorial Dancers. Every dance they do is in honour of him.
Their show wouldn’t be complete without the outfits and they give a huge thank you to their Grandma Dawn Harris-Flett who designs and custom makes all their attire. (Thanks to Designs by Dawn!) IFMD would also like to thank all of their fans and family for their continued love and support.
