Five Things to Know Five Days Before the Show:

1. This year’s theme is Produced on the Prairies. The theme will be evident throughout the show as we bring you products, equipment and speakers who got their start on the prairies. At the top of the main ramp you will find our NEW, one-of-a-kind vendor market featuring different local food and beverage products each day. You can get a jump start on the show, and the theme, by joining us on Monday, January 20th at the Provincial Exhibition of Manitoba Dome Building for a food and beverage tasting event, beginning at 7pm.
