Getting to Regent Avenue West: from the airport, the highways and the city

The address is 1415 Regent Avenue West, Winnipeg, MB R2C 3B2. The casino and Event Centre share the next number, 1425. Canad Inns places the hotel "in Winnipeg's east end"; Wikipedia puts it in Transcona and says it is 15 km — about 25 minutes by car — from the airport. Neither the hotel nor the city publishes a distance to downtown, so I won't either.

From Winnipeg's airport (YWG)

The hotel's route: leave the airport on Wellington Avenue to Century Street (Route 90) north, to the Perimeter Highway (Route 101). Take the Perimeter east to Lagimodière Boulevard (Highway 59), go south on Lagimodière to Regent Avenue, then east on Regent to the casino and hotel. The hotel notes that routes through the city also work.

Taxis and ride-hailing work too. I haven't printed a fare: none of the sources I trust publishes one for this trip.

From the east — Trans-Canada Highway 1

Entering the city, take Lagimodière Boulevard (Highway 59) north to Regent Avenue, then east on Regent. It's the simplest approach of all: no Perimeter, no downtown.

Route from Highway 1 at Lagimodière

From the south — Highway 75 from the US border

Interstate 29 becomes Highway 75 at the Emerson crossing. Follow 75 into Winnipeg through St. Norbert to the Perimeter Highway overpass (Route 100), take the Perimeter east to Lagimodière Boulevard (Highway 59), north on Lagimodière to Regent Avenue, then east.

From the north — Highways 6, 7, 8 and 9

Take the Perimeter Highway (Route 101) east to Lagimodière Boulevard (Highway 59), south on Lagimodière to Regent, then east.

From downtown and The Forks

For buses, Winnipeg Transit replaced its route map with the Primary Transit Network on 29 June 2025. Old route numbers in older guides won't help. Use the city's Navigo trip planner, the Transit app or Google Maps, all updated for the new network.

Parking when you arrive

The casino advertises free parking in its parkade "with convenient access to the Canad Inns Hotel". For Event Centre attendees, the venue lists 900 covered stalls plus overflow outdoor parking, with a skywalk and elevator into the building. More on the parking and skywalk page.

A winter driving note

Every route above uses the Perimeter Highway or Lagimodière Boulevard, both major roads. Still, the climate figures Wikipedia cites put about twelve days a year below −40 with wind chill. On those days I'd leave earlier, keep the tank above half, and let the desk know in the request form if you expect to arrive late.
