The Winnipeg Friendship Festival is a family festival featuring cartoon characters as its main attraction. The festival is held in Assiniboine Park in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. For many years, the festival was known as the Winnie the Pooh festival in honor of the bear Winnipeg who inspired both the book and the movie. Disney was the sponsor of the festival during those early years.
The festival is held in July on a Saturday.
