We’re looking forward to welcoming you to Growing Relationships in Winnipeg, MB on Monday, October 16!
Here are the details for our Growing Relationships attendees. Please read it through fully and reach out if you have any questions. We suggest you bookmark this page and have it handy on your phone for October 16.
TIME
The event is 9am – 5pm CDT. Tickets may show a 7am start because StratCann is located in BC and it automates timezones… but rest assured, in Winnipeg, the event is 9am-5pm!
VENUE
The event is at the Inn at the Forks Hotel (75 Forks Market Rd, Winnipeg, MB). We will be in the Forks Ballroom on the 2nd floor. There is an elevator for anyone with mobility issues, and signage in the front lobby.
PARKING
There are several parkades in the area, including the Forks Parkade. The cost is $2/hour at the pay stations via card only (no cash).
The two closest options are the surface lot on the north (back) side of the hotel, and the side of the hotel that faces the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. There is also a multi-level parkade right next door and many other surface lots located around the Forks.
PRE-PARTY
Street Sessions pre-party: Join Hundred Pound Hauling on Sunday, October 15 from 7pm-midnight at the Darling Bar. Growing Relationship Attendees: contact Sean ([email protected]) to get a promo code for a free ticket… before they sell out!

DRESS FOR THE WEATHER
We have exclusive use of a 2nd-floor outdoor patio. Please ensure you have a jacket handy as the forecast looks sunny but chilly! This space will be available for informal networking throughout the day.
FREE PITCH FEEDBACK SESSION
We’ve partnered with Velvet Kavanaugh of Phenologic to ensure you are ready for “weed-dating” and highly encourage you to book your free session before they’re booked up!
Can you clearly communicate what sets your company apart in 1 minute? Most cannabis companies can’t, yet it’s crucial for connecting with your buyers. At the Growing Relationships ‘weed-dating’ session, you’ll get 1 minute in front of your audience to share what you are about and why they should buy from you. That minute goes fast!
I can help you with a free pitch feedback session. Get focused on what makes your company
stand out so retailers remember you and want to carry your products. Book your time today – space is limited.
FEDERAL & PROVINCIAL REGULATIONS
Please note this event will adhere to all federal and provincial regulations, we appreciate your participation and support at this industry event.
Adult Only Event
