Downtown Winnipeg BIZ: Memo - The latest information for BIZ Members
 
Earth Day CleanUp Downtown
Earth Day Cleanup Downtown
 

Roll up your sleeves and pick up litter at our annual Earth Day CleanUp Downtown! In celebration of Earth Day, Downtown Winnipeg BIZ will be hosting our annual Earth Day CleanUp Downtown Event on April 20th from 10AM to 12PM.

You are invited to register as an individual or with colleagues – it’s an excellent team-building activity! Register by April 13th to participate.

Participants will gather at Manitoba Hydro Plaza and be given materials and equipment (gloves, garbage bags, and garbage pickers). After a short celebration, we will walk around the neighbourhood to collect as much litter as we can.

With your help, we can work together to clean up after the spring snow melts and take care of downtown.

For inquiries, please email events@downtownwinnipegbiz.com.

Host It Downtown grant program

Street parties, cook-offs, concerts, festivals – these events come in all shapes and sizes, and we want to bring more of them to downtown Winnipeg!

As part of our efforts to create a downtown full of people, we’re once again offering our Host It Downtown event grant.

This grant is available to support new events, to relocate an event downtown or to expand an existing event. Complementing the existing portfolio of events put on by Downtown Winnipeg BIZ, Host It Downtown aims to increase downtown visitation, offer unique experiences not found anywhere else, and support the diversity of the community.
