Shaw Park

If you are one of the more-than four million baseball fans to have visited Shaw Park, then you already know what a gem this facility is. Opened in June of 1999, the home of the Winnipeg Goldeyes has received rave reviews as not only a great place to watch some American Association action, but also as the site of numerous functions, concerts and other sporting events, including the baseball competition at the XIII Pan Am Games. From the great food at the concessions to the great seats that overlook the field, this state-of-the-art ballpark provides all the amenities of a first-class facility. Located north of The Forks and just a fly ball from the renowned intersection of Portage and Main, Shaw Park is equally accessible to vehicles and pedestrians alike. Its central location means fans will be able to arrive for the opening pitch and get home after the final pitch with little or no difficulty. That is, of course, if they choose to go home. With both the historic Exchange District and St. Boniface within easy walking distance, a trip downtown to see the Goldeyes doesn't have to end when the game does. Numerous restaurants and night clubs on both sides of the Red River, which flows by just beyond the outfield wall, await fans who aren't quite ready to call it a night.
