A three-story expansion featuring a column-free, 30,000-ft² grand ballroom stacked vertically between below-grade parking for 175 cars and an above-grade, 77,350-ft² exhibit hall. The new exhibit hall adjoins an existing exhibit hall, delivering 135,500 ft² of contiguous space, while long-span floor framing and long-span truss framing allowed for the column-free ballroom and exhibit hall spaces. ![Image of Winnipeg Convention Centre Expansion](https://www.mka.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/96971_00_N12_indesign-jpg.webp)
