The Winnipeg Convention Centre is a major meeting and convention facility located in downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. The publicly-owned facility was built in 1975, and was among the first such facilities built in Canada. It contains five levels including indoor parking, various meeting and convention rooms, a theatre, a restaurant, and a main exhibit hall with 78,000 square feet (7,200 m) of pillarless space. The Winnipeg Convention Centre is connected by above-grade walkway to the Winnipeg Walkway system. Expansion of the facility has been long-discussed, with tentative plans announced publicly, though expansion plans remain in the conceptual stage.
