Winnipeg Enterprises Corporation was a non-profit organization in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada that owned and operated Winnipeg Stadium and Winnipeg Arena. It was established in 1952 by a group led by Winnipeg Blue Bombers president Culver Riley in an attempt to build a new football stadium at Polo Park. The city gave its approval in August 1952, and under The Winnipeg Enterprises Corporation Incorporation Act, the corporation was to be an arms-length body that, in the public interest, would oversee the building and operation of the stadium. Soon after the stadium was completed, the corporation was given approval to build the new 9,500 seat Winnipeg Arena next to the Stadium.^[1]^[2]

Winnipeg Enterprises Corporation remained the landlord for both facilities until 2004, when its assets were transferred to the city's direct control and its operations were wound down. Operation of the stadium was turned over to the Winnipeg Football Club. With the opening of the privately-owned MTS Centre in November 2004, the Winnipeg Arena was rendered obsolete and demolished in 2006.^[3]
