Canad Inns Stadium, Football stadium in Winnipeg, Canada
Canad Inns Stadium was a football venue in Winnipeg with multiple seating sections, artificial turf, and covered stands that held approximately 33,000 spectators. The facility had different levels that were expanded over time to increase capacity for events.
The venue opened in 1953 as a smaller facility that underwent several expansions over the following decades. Upper decks were added during the 1970s to accommodate increasing attendance.
The venue was home to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers for decades and became central to how the city experienced football. Fans gathered here regularly to support their team and witness significant moments in Canadian football culture.
The facility operated at Maroons Road for many years before operations relocated to a newer location on the University of Manitoba campus in 2013. Visitors should know that the original site is no longer in active use.
The stadium experienced an extraordinary moment in 1991 when more than 51,000 people came for the Grey Cup, far exceeding normal capacity. This event remains one of the largest crowds the venue ever hosted.
