The annual Royal Manitoba Winter Fair kicks off on Monday at Brandon's Keystone Centre, and once again promises something for every family member.
With daily show jumping shows, as well as draft and heavy horse competitions, Provincial Exhibition Operations Manager Kristen Laing-Breemersch says horses will once again be front and centre at this year's Fair.
"We have horses coming from all over Canada, and a great number coming from the States that are top-notch equine enthusiasts and jumpers that we are looking forward to be able to have take part in the ATCO Cup, and our Provincial Exhibition of Manitoba Memorial Grand Prix, which wraps up the event on Saturday, April 4th."
Monday kicks off with Heroes Day, as military, firefighters, police, and EMS personnel will be admitted for free.
Tuesday is 4-H day, and Laing-Breemersch is excited that 4-H will once again be a heavy focus of the Fair.
"4-H is one of the staples that we have within our agriculture industry that gives a hands-on experience of rural and urban life that come together, whether it is riding a horse, showing your cattle, or learning how to sew."
Tickets are available through the Provincial Exhibition website, or at the Keystone Centre as of 10 AM Monday.
