Meet in the 2nd floor foyer with your provincial ‘teams’ and be ready to go early so our photographer Sarah-Eve can rip through these.

Looking forward to seeing some creative group shots!

So glad you could all join us for one last (?!) gasp of winter in Winnipeg 🤭

Safe travels to all of you heading out into a spring blizzard over the next couple of days!

We have zero suggestions on how to pack for this- it will be a messy few days but we’ll get through it like we always do!

So many good options close by for lunch and dinner!

There’s Blaze Restaurant AND right in .

has some great nightly drink specials and a special offer on food for the Blue Convention crowd- check your registration kits 😉

Some personal favourites are and in the beautiful MB Hydro building. Plus so many great spots at in True North Square. And and just around the corner from the hotel.

But THE BEST is Mitzi’s Chicken Fingers…it’s tricky to get there when they’re open but totally worth it.

Lastly, there’s a food court and Boston Pizza in City Place and you can get there via the skywalks- perfect for a spring blizzard 🥶

There’s also options for Tim’s and Starbucks close by if you feel like getting out for a walk- Google Maps can show you the way.

And as always at Blue Convention, get on the Google to check holiday hours over the Easter weekend.
