    One of the biggest and best wedding venues in Winnipeg. If you've got a big wedding then this will be one of your options. I've photographed ceremonies here and tons of huuuge wedding receptions with 500+ people over the years. It has ton's of parking around the building and is situated in the heart of downtown around tons of hotels for out of town guests.

    We were volunteers for an event at RBC Convention Centre. The venue was easy to find, great signage everywhere. A member of staff was quick to help and even took us right to where we needed to be. Very professional. The facility is bright, clean and spacious.

    Was here for the Winnipeg Home and Garden show. Was impressed with the facility all around. Massive place, decent service. Altogether made for a good experience for me as exhibiter. Great location near downtown close to lots of great restaurants and hotels. Also close to the forks.

    Located at very very prominent location in the middle of downtown Winnipeg Manitoba of Canada. Beautifully maintained and decorated place. Lots of parking space under ground and drop-off area well defined and marked properly. Beautiful and attractive big halls for party, function and seminars. Easily approachable from any sides.

    Good evening - Friday Bus 33 by lead an amazing tour Chris Peterson. He was very knowledgeable, passionate making sure everyone enjoy their experience at Folklarama. He told many jokes. 56 folks including myself enjoyed our evening being driven on the bus, no waiting in line nor having the show sold out at Folklarama. First stop was Hungarian at RBC Convention Centre. We were met with smiling volunteers telling us the history of Hungary ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡บ they shared the history of this country โ™ฅ๏ธ many fotos taken. The appetizers was plentiful homemade Saugage, cabbage roll mmmmmmm along with tasteful drink. The band came from Hungary. Dancing was great along with the singing. โ™ฅ๏ธ

    We have had the opportunity to work with many of the staff and event planners at the RBC Convention Centre over the past 5 years. Grads, corporate events, weddings, and Christmas Parties and each event we have been wowed by the staff. They are friendly, helpful and quick to respond. We love that they have specific loading docks that makes it so easy- especially trying to setup in downtown Winnipeg. Tonight we are doing Vincent Masseyโ€™s Grad and working with Sandra was wonderful. A few changes needed to be made on the fly and she made them happen. She responded very fast to my emails and was a pleasure to work with!! Thank you for making our set-up easy! We are always excited to work with RBC and their amazing staff!!

    Huge open entertainment center, large rooms available for rent, paid parking available in underground parades. Elevators are wheelchair accessible, washrooms were open during booked events. However the Skywalk is closed due to COVID-19 limits on entrance points. Staff and volunteers are helpful.

    I've been to this convention center several times, for conventions, concerts, conferences, festivals and vaccinations. It serves its purpose well, no complaints. It's also conveniently connected to Winnipeg's skywalk system with easy access to some hotels, dining and shopping options.

    What an elegant state of the art facility to host events of luxurious standards. Though it ain't coming at a cheap price.

    2023 Comicon... was great. The convention center is a great place to host such an event. Lots of parking and lots close by in the event the underground parking in the RBC centre is full.

    It suits its purpose but there are some design flaws that make it inconvenient if you're not already inconvenienced by mobility issues. Parked lower parking garage (upper was full), no issue. Small elevators, cramped with eight people, moreso of there's a stroller or other wheeled mobility device. Stairs to go between lower levels and upper levels are not co-located nor are they even marked until you find the entrance to that stairwell. Not the fault of the RBCCC, but after a decade in other metropolitan cities, most of the Winnipeg offerings (exhibits, trade shows etc) seem a little disappointing, maybe it's post Covid but still underwhelming.

    Went to get our booster shots. It seemed like a maze to get to the actual immunization area,but it was very well organized. There are guides all along the way to assist with directions, or any questions one might have.

    Very nice facility. First time here for a trade show and I'm impressed. WRLA organizers are top notch. The facility staff was wonderful as well. Even the smallest needs were taken care of promptly. Thanks for the wonderful experience..

    The center is always clean! Also I love their staff. There was one time I had to pump, and I asked a staff if there is any room I can use. A staff at the concierge desk kindly offered a clean room where I can use privately as long as I want. I was so surprised by how nice they are! I sometimes go there for my work, I always have good experiences. Even cleaning staff are so nice and friendly!

    Came here for the Winnipeg Home Renovation Show. The space is large, bright and excellent for trade shows. Washrooms are accessible, elevator and escalators all around and centrally located. There could be more food vendors but itโ€™s very close to food and coffee spots for breaks. The show was awesome and the venue was well draped with black curtains to allow for a clean environment

    Seamless process for Covid-19 vaccination. Great work team! The 5 stars are for you. Level 2 had a Wedding show / exhibition, but there was no proper information about what to expect in there. Entry required a $20 ticket per person. We didn't go there eventually.

  • 5/5 Ed U. 2 years ago on Google
    They've done a great job being transformed into a large vaccination site. Plenty of friendly staff and the flow works quite well. The building itself has always been good and the new wing is designed well.

    Excellent place to have an event. Everything was meticulously set up and ready for us. Staff checked several times to make sure things were good. Room was clean and bright, as we needed it with good air flow.

    Thank you to the entire staff (and whomever else deserves full credit and accolades) that was responsible for administering the 4 COVID-19 boosters that I have received since May of 2021. Over the past year and a half, each visit for my 'poke' has been absolutely seamless and stress-free. I feel extremely grateful and privileged to have this facility in our City. From the time you park downstairs, right up until the time you leave...it's a very easy process for all staff and patients. Every checkpoint along the way is attended by some very friendly and helpful folks. Not once, over 4 visits, did I experience any concerns or issues. You all made it happen for us Winnipeggers...and I am extremely appreciative of your services and attention to detail. By your very presence...you've helped a lot of people. And you've saved a lot of potential lives just by being so centrally located. Well done, folks. Thank you!

    Very clean staff is super efficient. Ckean bathrooms. Big wide scene. Good sound. Nice resto-bar on the first floor. I appreciated the fact that they let us order Pizza and have it at their tables, we we'reaboit 30 and didn'tseem to bother them. We ordered beverages of course. Nice area, there is a Giant Tiger not to far away.
