Will Waterfront Drive be Closed Tonight?

No, Waterfront Drive is open today.

The next closure will be in 7 days on Saturday, July 12, 2025.

Huge Improvements for 2025!

New advanced warning signs! Pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers now have several days' notice that Waterfront Drive will be closed.

New detour signs through the Goldeyes pedestrian plaza! You no longer have to wonder how to get through. People on bikes are no longer asked to add 20 minutes to their journey.

Later closures: starting at 6pm! Rather than closing off Waterfront Drive at the start of the evening commute! The Goldeyes and Archangel Fireworks have a new plan to delay the closure as long as is practicable.

Big thanks to the Winnipeg Goldeyes for listening and taking action.

I’m more of a visual learner

Me too. I’ve got you.

The Winnipeg Goldeyes and the City of Winnipeg have put up signed pedestrian and cyclist detours through the pedestrian plaza.
Proceed slowly! There will be families with children enjoying the food trucks and musicians in the pedestrian plaza and disabled parking lot behind Blue Cross Park. We are guests in the pedestrian space, so be slow and polite. Don’t ruin this for us, please!

Twice as much bicycle parking! Everyone keeps biking the games, so the Goldeyes have doubled their bicycle racks, which are located just at the entrance to the stadium, outside their security office.
