2026 Assiniboine Park Garden Party - In Full Bloom

Each August, our signature Garden Party captures the magic and spirit of Assiniboine Park. Set within the beautiful Leo Mol Sculpture Garden, this standing cocktail event invites guests to enjoy exceptional food stations, passed hors d’oeuvres, signature cocktails, live music, and the launch of our Online Auction. With more than 500 attendees and a long history of selling out, the Garden Party has become one of Winnipeg’s most anticipated summer celebrations.

This year, we are delighted to present the 2026 Garden Party: In Full Bloom, a joyful tribute to the colour, vibrancy, and wonder of nature at its peak. Guests will be immersed in a lush, artful atmosphere inspired by brilliant blooms, sweeping strokes of bold colour, and the delight that comes from stepping into a garden at its most radiant.

In Support of the Assiniboine Park Conservancy

Proceeds from this unique event directly support the Park’s continued care and enhancement, including the upkeep of its expansive lawns and green spaces, the cultivation of world-class garden displays, and the maintenance of scenic pathways and naturalized areas enjoyed by millions each year free of charge. These investments ensure the Park remains a welcoming, accessible, and inspiring place for everyone today, and for generations to come.

Our sold-out 2025 event raised over $280,000 in conjunction with the Online Auction!
