CITY OF WINNIPEG

https://www.tourismwinnipeg.com/

THE ORGANIZATION

In 1958, founders John Hirsch and Tom Hendry and their supporters had what might have seemed like a crazy dream. Their vision was to produce great theatre with mass appeal in what was then a city of less than half-a-million people on the Canadian prairies. Since then, Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre (Royal MTC) has created, produced, and presented extraordinary theatre for a vibrant audience which became a model for regional theatres throughout North America.

The stability and health of Royal MTC over time has enabled programming in two downtown venues, the creation and support of the Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival, and a regional tour. As North America’s oldest English language regional theatre, Royal MTC believes its responsibility is to be a theatre for all Manitobans. Located in Winnipeg, now a city of more than 800,000 residents with Canada’s largest urban Indigenous population, Royal MTC is committed to building authentic relationships through art that will foster reconciliation. Royal MTC has advanced an organization-wide conversation about diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility. Its mission is to truly both reflect and engage the community it serves.

THE COMMUNITY

Winnipeg is a culturally diverse city where more than 100 languages are spoken, and where over 34% of the population are visible minorities (based on Statistics Canada’s 2021 census). Just over 11% of the total population are from the Philippines. Over 12% of Winnipeg’s population identify as Indigenous, with events and celebrations including Indigenous Day Live and the Manito Ahbee Festival. The city has a robust French-speaking population (about 10% of residents’ mother-tongue is French) and hosts the winter-time Festival du Voyageur, which celebrates the region’s francophone, Métis and Indigenous culture and history. The city is also home to Folklorama, the world’s largest and longest-running multicultural festival.

The heart of Winnipeg is The Forks, a historic site at the intersection of the Red and Assiniboine rivers, with warehouses converted to shops and restaurants, plus ample green space dedicated to festivals, concerts, and exhibits. Nearby, the Exchange District is known for its well-preserved, early 20th-century architecture and numerous art galleries.

Known as the ‘cultural cradle of Canada’, in addition to the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre, Winnipeg is home to the Royal Winnipeg Ballet, the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, the Manitoba Opera, and the Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival, North America’s 2nd largest Fringe, which is produced by Royal MTC. Winnipeg also boasts the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, the Manitoba Museum, and the Winnipeg Art Gallery’s Qaumajuq, home to the largest public collection of contemporary Inuit art in the world.

The generosity of the Winnipeg community represents the largest per capita for philanthropy in Canada. In addition, 57 out of 200 foundations in Canada are based in Winnipeg with the Winnipeg Foundation being the biggest.

Winnipeg is a four-season city with something for everyone. Ranked as number three in Canada’s Most Livable Cities (The Globe and Mail, 2023), Winnipeg offers a great place to raise a family, with reasonable cost of housing, good schools, and a vibrant sense of community. The city is surrounded by prairie, forests, and hundreds of lakes including the world’s 11th-largest freshwater lake. Vacation country is easy to get to, most beaches and lakes are much less than 2-hours away by car. Known for its many tree-canopied neighbourhoods, Winnipeg enjoys an average of 317 days of sunshine per year, much more than most of Canada.
