The only banquet facility in Winnipeg specializing in Italian cuisine. Celebrating and promoting Italian Culture in Manitoba for over 20 years. 

Centro Caboto Centre, which is owned and operated by the Italian Canadian League of Manitoba, opened its doors on June 14, 1998. Its mission is the same as today. It’s a meeting place and activity centre for the Italian community to celebrate the Italian culture and lifestyle, now and into the future.

What’s outside the Centro
Our 27,000-square foot centre on Wilkes Avenue in south Winnipeg is proudly situated on 7.2 acres of land. It has calcetto fields, where the summer league plays from May to September.  

At the rear, there are outdoor bocce courts with games beginning in June. The Sons of Italy Piazza Garibaldi offers loads of seating for picnics and other outdoor events. Our Commemorative Wall next to the Piazza is engraved with almost 600 names of loved ones that have passed. The Centro also has a children’s play structure and swings.

For added convenience, the Centro has a large parking lot for about 150 vehicles.

Inside the Centro
Stepping inside, you’re immediately struck by the grand Foyer Degli Amici. It’s named after three honoured but not forgotten members of the Italian Canadian community in Manitoba, John Mottola, Tony Sherbo and Gus Cosentino. The foyer’s high vaulted ceiling marked by a tower at one corner, lets the sunlight stream through.

Past the foyer is the Mauro Conference Centre, a large banquet and conference room. It can seat over 400 people for dinner or 600 theatre-style. The Centro has a full-service kitchen. A glassed galleria is sandwiched between the Conference Centre and Piazza. The galleria can comfortably seat 80 people for dinner, shower, birthday or any occasion.
