What to do in Winnipeg in June 2025!

 

Sunshine, mini donuts, and a calendar that’s bursting at the seams—hello, June in Winnipeg!

A Winnipeg Favourite: Red River Ex!!!

If there’s one thing this city does exceptionally well, it’s summertime!

After months of snow boots and space heaters, June feels like flipping the page to a brand-new chapter: patios hum with laughter, trails fill with cyclists, and every weekend brings another chance to try something new.

This month, we’ve pulled together a lineup of can't-miss events, local gems, and uniquely Winnipeg experiences to help you make the most of every long day. Whether you're a sports fanatic (Go Bombers!), a foodie chasing the next food truck fix, or a parent planning Father’s Day magic, there’s something for everyone. And because we know the calendar can get overwhelming, we’ve hand-picked our Top 3 Queen Team Favourites to get you started.

Let’s dive in—and don’t forget to save room for mini donuts at The EX. 🍩

 ✨✨Our must-visit list: ✨✨

⚽️🏈⚾️🏀 Winnipeg Sports Teams Home Games - Throughout June

So the Jets are out of the playoffs (but what a run, right?)—but Winnipeg sports fans, don’t hang up your jerseys just yet! Summer in Winnipeg is a dream for sports lovers, with professional teams firing on all cylinders across the city. The Winnipeg Sea Bears kicked off their season in mid-May and will keep the momentum going through August. Over at IG Field, the Blue Bombers return with their home opener on June 12th, and if the past few years are any indication, we’re in for another powerhouse season. #ForTheW

FC Valour brings the footy flair all summer long, also at Princess Auto Stadium, while the Winnipeg Goldeyes are loading the bases and swinging for the fences downtown at Blue Cross Park—a perfect way to spend a sunny afternoon.

🎡 The EX is Back, Winnipeg! June 13th – 22nd 🎟️

The annual carnival at Red River Exhibition Park is rolling back into town this June—and it’s bringing all the fun you’d expect (and then some)! Whether you're chasing thrills on the rides, trying your luck at classic carnival games, dancing to live music, or just here for the deep-fried everything (we see you, mini donuts), The EX is the perfect way to kick off summer with the whole family.

Mark your calendar, bring your stretchy pants, and get ready for an unforgettable time at the midway!

🏌️‍♂️🎣 Father’s Day - June 15th

Whether he’s the king of the grill, a weekend warrior on the golf course, or out reeling in the big one, there are so many ways to show Dad he’s loved. And this year, we’d love to help you do just that! Keep reading to find out what we’ve got planned for this month’s Father’s Day giveaway—you won’t want to miss it!
