Planning an event in Winnipeg

  • Alcohol: a licensed venue covers the bar. Anywhere else (a hall, a park, an office) needs a Social Occasion Liquor Permit from the Liquor, Gaming and Cannabis Authority of Manitoba (LGCA). Timing: at least 4 weeks ahead. The legal drinking age in Manitoba is 18.
  • Sales tax: 5% GST plus 7% RST on catering, alcohol and most rentals; hall rental itemized separately is RST-exempt. The budget calculator applies it when Winnipeg is selected.
  • Capacity: the occupant load posted in the room is the legal maximum. Check your layout with the capacity calculator.
  • Outdoor events: parks, tents and amplified sound need approval from the municipality; ask early, because noise exemptions and tent permits take weeks.
  • Site visits: bring the 25-question venue tour checklist.
