Enjoy an enriching escape, without spending too much time in the car simply by taking a quick road trip to Killarney, MB. Located approximately an hour south of Brandon, the community has plenty to offer making it well worth the drive. One of the town's best-known landmarks is The Beach Hut, a seasonal restaurant serving outrageously good hamburgers (made from Manitoba grown meat) and hand-cut fries. The menu features a large variety of burgers, salads, wraps, appetizers, poutines, & more. Before you leave be sure to try one of their many ice cream flavours or treats as you play a round of mini-golf. While in Killarney, visitors may want to stop by Killarney Beach for a quick dip or let the kids cool off in the Erin Park Splash Park. Both the beach and splash park are located across the street from The Beach Hut. If you're more of a night-owl, you may want to plan your trip around a Friday or Saturday night to catch a flick at the recently re-opened Shamrock Drive-In.

Join the Provincial Exhibition of Brandon for two fun filled evenings (July 23 & July 24) as the organization earlier today released details of their latest fundraising effort, Drive-In At The Dome. Guests will enjoy the movie Wonder Woman 1984 on a large 16’ x 24’ screen setup in the Keystone Centre parking lot. They will be able to accommodate 200 cars each night. Tickets to the show are selling fast.  Friday seems to be selling out very quickly and Saturday is already almost half way sold, a representative of the Provincial Ex told bdnmb.ca. The price is $30 and that reserves one parking spot and gets you a “snack pack” which includes 2 popcorns and 2 drinks. There will be additional popcorn and drinks available for purchase at the event as well.  Doors open at 8pm and the movie will begin at dusk (roughly 9:30-10). It will be rush parking, so get there early if you want a spot near the front! You can purchase your snack pack to reserve your spot by calling 204-726-3590 or emailing info@provincialex.com.

Over the course of the next several weeks, we will be introducing you to the food vendors who will be participating in BDNMB.CA's Food Truck Warz for the first time. Launched in 2020, Willey's Grub Hub entered the 2021 season with a new larger trailer and trailer wrap.   Willey's Grub Hub is a Brandon based food truck specializing in most things barbeque. On the fairly diverse menu you will find items like a pulled pork sandwich, steak sandwich, smoked brisket dip, hamburgers, mac & cheese, and more. The the 4th annual Food Truck Warz will take place this year at the Keystone Centre in Brandon from September 16-19.

Visitors to the 4th annual Food Truck Warz in Brandon, MB will once again have the opportunity to help determine the best food truck in the festival. Twenty-six different food trucks will converge at the Keystone Centre on September 16th-19th looking for your vote.

The extremely popular Winnipeg food truck, serving Japanese fusion, is known as the home of the HEROSHIMA, an original grilled-skewer sandwich served on a sweet bun with Japanese inspired sauces and toppings. Will they do it again or will they be dethroned by one of the returning trucks or eager rookie trucks? Remember to stop by the Keystone Centre for the opportunity to cast your vote.
