Brandon First is a not-for-profit Destination Marketing Organization that consists of a twelve member Board of Directors, a three person staff of an Executive Director, Development Coordinator and a Sales Coordinator in Winnipeg, plus a base of over fifty local business stakeholders. We are committed to working as a cohesive group to promote Brandon, Manitoba as a host city for events.

We proactively source out events by attending conferences, meetings, sporting events and more to find the ones that are the right fit for our city, our venues and our market. We then work to find a local committee or interested party to pursue these potential leads. We also work with local organizations and committees who already have an idea in mind to bring their targeted event to the City of Brandon.

It is our goal to drive economic development in the city through multi-day event tourism, and successful event hosting.

Brandon First helped bring the 2017 and 2018 Royal Canadian Youth Track and Field Championships to this venue. On top of the pool, ice rink and raquetball courts inside, the newly renovated IAAF track is the PERFECT venue for any track and field event!

Brandon First: Bringing Events To Brandon1 day ago

😍

We walk, run and drive by these downtown streets everyday. It has become a part of our everyday lives. Yet we don't take the time to learn and admire the stories and the history these buildings and sidewalks carry within them. So when Brandon Downtown Development Corporation came up with a small yet an effective idea to make these downtown crosswalks interactive, we had to do something. And we did. A huge thank you goes to everyone who helped in the making of this video. It was a cold and windy sunday but all of you came out and made it happen! Especially to our ballerina @FaithKasprick and pianist David Naylor for braving the cold and making it all happen. Thank you thank you thank you! This video was made out of the love we have for the city we call home. Brandon, Manitoba. ❤️Hope you love it as much as we loved making it.
