An initiative started by the patrons of theater, the Manitoba Theatre Centre is a not-for-profit organization promoting art and culture in the city. The organization offers two theater stages, which host various events. These stages can accommodate around two-fifty people each and are designed with the latest technological assistance. Local events like festivals and other such drama fairs are conducted here on a regular basis.

Manitoba Centennial Centre serves as one of Winnipeg's most prominent performing arts venues. Home to the Manitoba Theatre Centre, Manitoba Museum and the Centennial Concert Hall, it hosts some of the top-rated performing troupes and musicians of the region. Several noted Canadian singers have graced the various venues of the community center. AN arresting mural painting by painter Greta Dale is found in its lobby and remains a major highlight of the center building.

Part of the Centennial Centre, which also houses the Museum of Manitoba and the Planetarium, this hall is essentially a roadhouse for Winnipeg performance art. It is home base to such notable troupes as the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, Royal Winnipeg Ballet and the Manitoba Opera. A host of cultural performances, theatrical shows and even conferences are held here from time to time.

The latest addition to the city's bustling downtown area is the magnificent MTS Centre. With its sprawling capacity, it is one of the city's most popular entertainment venues. You can catch a variety of sporting events here, including basketball, curling, arena football, lacrosse, wrestling, and indoor soccer. There is also an ice rink for hockey and skating events. Theater, musical performances, and cabaret shows are also offered. Past entertainers have included Rod Stewart and Motley Crue. The venue features a wide variety of restaurants, a sports goods store, and spaces for meetings and parties. Don’t forget to inquire about the special club packages available. Known for its unmatched offerings as well as its contemporary architecture, it is a must-visit on your itinerary.

Why have dinner before the theater when you can have it with the theater? Celebrations Dinner theater offers the excellent combination of dinner and entertainment. The menu is limited, but the food on offer is tasty (especially the chicken dishes) and plentiful. The plays are of high quality, so patrons need not worry that the theater is simply a gimmick. This space is great place to entertain business clients and great for a date, as there are limited opportunities for awkward lulls in conversation. Ticket prices included with dinner cost and the discounted rates for seniors and students are applicable only on Wednesday.
