I haven’t been to it, but I have generally been disappointed with the Assiniboia Downs seasonal displays.

Hope that I’m wrong.

$20 to look at pumpkins. You be the judge.

I went a couple of days ago. Aside from being muddy (they did put down a bunch of straw, so they were trying), it was a really solid meh. I won’t be going next year. If you do go, the entrance/exit is close to the perimeter, not where you’d typically enter something for the downs.

Assiniboia Downs events are so stupidly expensive for no reason. I feel like it could be a cute place to visit and hang around, but not for a whole $20 fucking dollars.

What about witchy wonderland? I heard good things. I don’t have kids but I want to know!

Don’t. The pumpkins are not real and the whole walk around takes 15 minutes. There are 3 food trucks and only 3 metal tables to eat in the dark.

Nothing in Winnipeg is worth it.
