Exchange District BIZ receives

Winnipeg Tourism Marketing Campaign Award of Distinction

“Real to Reel” Walking Tour

Hollywood has had a long love affair with the Exchange District. In 2011, the Exchange District BIZ introduced Real to Reel, a new walking tour about the rich history of filmmaking in the neighbourhood. Ads were placed in the Winnipeg Free Press, Downtown Winnipeg magazine and on the 201 Portage Avenue media panel. BIZ used its own e-newsletter and website to get the message out. The result? Online traffic jumped to 3,700 hits during July and August. Kids from 20-plus school groups toured the district. And individual tour bookings spiked with 2,200 sight-seers wandering through the Exchange District.

Tourism Award was sponsored by Travel Manitoba and presented to an individual, organization, business or marketing consortium in recognition of a creative or innovative marketing campaign that resulted in increased visitation.
