Manitoba Music at the Red River Ex
You may have been traumatized by clowns and rollercoaster rides as a child, but it's time to put those old fears behind you and head back to the Red River Ex. The popular summer attraction, which brings in thousands of visitors every year, is about more than just extreme rides and cotton candy. The Ex also boasts an impressive line-up of live music, including marquee names like the Sam Roberts Band and Marianas Trench.
