Winnipeg experiences hot humid summers with plenty of thunderstorms and cold windy and dry winters. Spring and autumn make up the short transitional seasons in between, which are generally temperate. Visiting the city during any season can be rewarding due to the wealth of activities, events and festivals on offer.

Although travellers still need to wrap up warmly some days during spring and autumn, they can take advantage of less rainfall than summer and less snowfall than winter.

Winnipeg overview
Situated on Canada’s vast prairies, Winnipeg is one of North America’s undiscovered highlights. Filled with theatres, cinemas, museums and restaurants, it is also a great location for water sports lovers and hikers alike.
The city of Winnipeg may be remote, but it is a modern cultural hub. There are plenty of museums to visit, such as the permanent exhibition about the history of the plains, whilst visitors can also enjoy walking tours of the historical French district. The city is littered with great theatres, such as the Royal Manitoba and the Manitoba Theatre for Young People, as well as superb opera venues and an excellent art house cinema at Cinematheque.
Winnipeg is also a venue for numerous lively festivals. Take a flight to Winnipeg in February for the winter Saison Voyageur, when haunting illuminations make the French quarter more beautiful than ever. Or visit during the city’s famed Folk Festival, one of the finest of its kind in North America.
Sport is another attraction. The city is home to a fine ice hockey team (the Jets) and an American Football team as well (the Blue Bombers) and has 6 public golf courses that are lovingly maintained.
The food of the region is also justly famous across Canada. Winnipeg is in prime fishing territory, and the city is known for dishes like smoked Goldeye – but has also lent its name to a gorgeous variant on cream cheese. There are also some excellent sushi restaurants to choose from.
Outside the city, Manitoba has plenty to offer the adventurous. Whether you adore canoeing, hiking, mountain biking, rafting or even cross-country skiing, Winnipeg is a great base for an energetic outdoor break. Alternatively, just relax to your heart’s content with a leisurely fishing expedition.
Getting around Winnipeg
Winnipeg is really a city that is designed for driving, and the flat plains of Manitoba are similarly best explored with a rental car. Walking around the central districts is possible, and be sure to make use of the specially designed Walkway system which provides respite from the winter cold.
Getting from the Airport to the City
James Armstrong Richardson International Airport (YWG) is only around 5 miles (8 km) to the west of the city centre, making access to hotels relatively easy. Bus routes 15 and 20 leave the airport every quarter of an hour and are very good value. Taxis are always available, and there are even limousine hire facilities for luxury arrivals. All major car rental firms are also represented.
