Fort Gibraltar

Combining the elegance of a historic setting with modern comfort and features, Fort Gibraltar is the ideal venue to become the New Frontier for your next event. Located minutes from downtown Winnipeg, we offer a unique venue for weddings, receptions, corporate meetings, private functions, conferences and group tours. Indoor and outdoor events are made even more special with historical music and entertainment options, and an exceptional dining experience. Situated on the banks of the Red River, Fort Gibraltar will take you back 200 years to the period of the voyageurs. In the summer, Fort Gibraltar is a popular Winnipeg tourist attraction, featuring a living history museum offering interactive and educational guided tours about the fur trade era. Our costumed interpreters relive the daily life of the inhabitants of the site in 1815 as you visit significant buildings in the fort such as the blacksmith shop, the winterer’s cabin and the trading post. In February, the historical venue is at the heart of the largest winter festival in Western Canada, the Festival du Voyageur.
