Co-Chair Message: A Royal Celebration of Agriculture and Community
W e would like to welcome you to the 2026 Royal Manitoba of agriculture and community! Months of planning have gone into this one-of-a-kind event, and we hope you will enjoy the sites and sounds as much as we have enjoyed planning them for you. Whether you are coming for horse jumping, The Canine Circus pre- sented by Fusion Credit Union or the delicious food – there is something for everyone. Each year, this cherished tradition brings together compet- itors, families, agricultural leaders and community members to celebrate excellence in equestrian sport, livestock and rural life. The fair is more than an event – it’s a gathering place where heritage meets innovation and memories are made. We are incredibly proud of the dedication and passion shown by our exhibitors and volunteers whose hard work and commit- ment make this week so special. Your contributions ensure that this long-standing tradition continues to thrive for future Winter Fair – a royal celebration generations and we couldn’t be more thankful for that. At the show, our Ag Education stage is full of demon- strations from sheep shearing to cattle handling. The Royal Farmyard lets you experience dairy, poultry and hog operations as well as some memory making with the ani- mals in the petting Farmyard. Enjoy our Royal Food Court
in the Manitoba Room where there will be interactive entertainment for the kids along with tradeshow and food vendors. In the MNP Hall there is an entertainment stage with different acts featured throughout the day. The am- phitheater has a packed schedule all week as well that will be sure to entertain the whole family. The Canine Circus presented by Fusion Credit Union perform multiple times per day in the main arena. Our feature horse shows provide great competition and animal elegance at both ends of the facility. Our Heavy Horse show will once again have chore competitions demonstrat- ing hard work and skill of both animal and driver. Something special this year – our Memorial Grand Prix will take place Saturday night to wrap up the show. During the week many volunteers work hard with the support of companies such as Mazergroup who keep our staff and volunteers equipped with New Holland equipment for those tough jobs. On behalf of Candace and Clint, the co-chairs of the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair, we welcome you to our event. It’s al- ways a pleasure to see everyone come together from near and far. When you are here, please make sure that you show grat- itude to our volunteers and take notice of the many sponsors and exhibitors who have helped us bring you this great show. We look forward to sharing an unforgettable fair with you!
