The countdown to 2024 is on! Whether you’re after a concert, a quiet dinner, a family event, fireworks, or a huge party, there’s a New Year’s Eve celebration in Winnipeg for you. We’ve rounded up the best events for New Year’s Eve 2023 in Winnipeg and included links where we can; we recommend reserving your spot as soon as possible, as many events sell out quickly and many restaurants book up well in advance. We’d also recommend getting in touch with your favourite restaurant as soon as possible if you’re looking to book a NYE dinner; many restaurants in Winnipeg stay open for New Year’s Eve, but reservations are definitely needed.
So bring out the sparklers, put the champagne on ice, and get ready to celebrate New Year’s Eve 2023 in Winnipeg in style!
