For many years, Tribute Gala has brought together supporters, community leaders, and corporate partners in support of the Manitoba Museum.

Museum Unlocked builds on that legacy with a bold new approach.

Rather than gathering in a single room, guests will move throughout the Museum over the course of the evening, enjoying exceptional food and drink, live entertainment, and moments of discovery woven throughout our galleries and exhibition spaces.

Designed to encourage conversation, exploration, and connection, Museum Unlocked is an opportunity to experience the Museum in a way few people ever do.

What To Expect

An Evening Unlike Any Other

Guests can look forward to:

  • Exclusive after-hours access to the Museum
  • Food and beverage experiences throughout the evening
  • Live entertainment
  • Unique encounters with Manitoba’s stories, collections, and spaces
  • Opportunities to connect with community and business leaders who share a passion for culture, learning, and discovery
