Come celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Canadian Forces Base Winnipeg with us. An all-day event with guided bus tours of the base and both indoor and outdoor activities for the whole family to learn about our history, connect with our community and inspire our future. Take a walk through the memory lane from RCAF Station Winnipeg’s official opening in April 1925 through to becoming a major base for training pilot, navigators, observers and wireless operators during WWII to today as we continue the proud tradition of training aircrews and providing search and rescue capability to Canadians.

Venez célébrer avec nous le 100e anniversaire de la base des Forces canadiennes de Winnipeg. Une journée complète d’activités avec des visites guidées de la base en bus et des activités intérieures et extérieures pour toute la famille afin de découvrir notre histoire, de tisser des liens avec notre communauté et d’inspirer notre avenir. Faites un retour dans le passé, de l’ouverture officielle de la base de l’ARC de Winnipeg en avril 1925 à son rôle de base majeure pour la formation des pilotes, des navigateurs, des observateurs et des opérateurs radio pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, jusqu’à aujourd’hui, alors que nous poursuivons la fière tradition de formation des équipages et de recherche et sauvetage au service des Canadiens.

Please note the bus tour is not wheelchair accessible. Outdoor activities are wheelchair accessible.
