Stadium Information
IG Field is a modern open-air stadium in Winnipeg and one of the premier Canadian football venues in the country. Opened in 2013 to replace Canad Inns Stadium, the ground was purpose-built for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and is located on the University of Manitoba campus in the city’s south.
The stadium features a horseshoe-shaped bowl with steep seating, a distinctive upper-deck canopy and clear sightlines that keep fans close to the field. With a capacity of around thirty-three thousand, IG Field combines scale with a strong sense of intimacy. Matchdays at IG Field are known for atmosphere and consistency. Blue Bombers supporters create sustained noise, with sound carried effectively by the stadium’s design and partial roof coverage.
The venue has hosted Grey Cup finals, international football and major outdoor concerts, proving adaptable while retaining a football-first feel. Modern concourses, wide walkways and a strong range of food and drink options support efficient crowd flow.
The stadium is accessible via Winnipeg Transit bus routes and major road links, with extensive on-site parking available. Accessibility features include step-free routes, lifts, wheelchair seating platforms, adapted toilets and assistance services.
The surrounding university setting provides open space for pre-game activity and crowd management. For Winnipeg, IG Field represents modern infrastructure, community pride and a benchmark for Canadian football stadium design.
