At the horse show – Manitoba’s number one indoor equestrian show – competitions start early each day in the Westoba Place main arena and the Westoba Ag Centre for showjumping, hackney and heavy horse events. Along with the cattle and horse shows, the TD Acton Stage, petting farmyard and royal experienc- es will also be back this year. Fan favourites Woof
Jocks Canine All Star Show, presented by Fusion Credit Union, are also returning this year. The Magician & The Muse, featuring Sean Watson and Chanelle Munroe, will attempt to dazzle fairgoers with their unique magical experience as part of the
entertainment lineup at this year’s fair. Singer/ songwriter and Canadian entertainment icon Fred Penner will also be among the artists performing at the fair. The 75-year-old began his music career in 1972, according to the Canadian Encyclopedia, and has been entertaining and enchanting generations of Canadian children in the decades since. “Fred Penner is great … we’re really looking for- ward to [that],” Humphries said. “He certainly brings that nostalgia aspect in for the fans that have grown up with him to the next generation of youngsters that are enjoying his entertainment.”
