Fort Garry
Located in the south end of the city near the University of Manitoba, Investors Group Field is easily the piece de resistance for entertainment in Fort Garry. The sports stadium stands as the home of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, the Valour FC (Football Club), and the University of Manitoba Bisons. If sports aren’t your thing, it also doubles as an outdoor concert venue for the likes of Beyoncé and Jay Z, Taylor Swift, Paul McCartney, and more.
If it’s relaxation you’re looking for, head to Thermëa Spa, Winnipeg’s Scandinavian slice of paradise for a spa treatment that simply must be experienced. Thermëa by Nordik Spa-Nature will help soak your stresses away with its thermal pools, Finnish saunas and steam baths, and rejuvenate your senses with body treatments and massages. For more outdoor fun, right next door is Crescent Drive Golf Course, and nearby is Wildewood Golf Course.
When all that relaxation has left you rather ravenous, visit either Dancing Noodle for a delicious bowl of Lanzhou beef noodle soup with hand-pulled noodles, Chosabi for sushi burritos, Stella’s for cozy, comfort food or Cottage Bakery for cozy, comfort foods.
