Manitoba Ag Days Planning To Go Ahead In 2022

Aug 26, 2021

As it stands right now, the 2022 edition of Manitoba Ag Days is planning to go ahead at Brandon's Keystone Centre.

The event is scheduled to be held January 18th to the 20th.

General Manager Kristen Phillips has some advice for exhibitors.

"Registration will open September 1 and run until September 17, but we are encouraging everyone to register early this year," she said. "Because we're limited by space, we may have to make to tough decisions, so all registrations will be time stamped this year. The first come first serve basis will be in play."

Phillips says Ag Days will be scaled down somewhat in 2022 due to health restrictions. She notes they will only have one speaker theatre compared to usual two. The Innovation Showcase is also back on for 2022.

Organizers are working with Manitoba Health.

More details will follow in the weeks ahead.
