Prairieland Park is Saskatoon’s designated World Trade Centre — arguably one of the best sites in western Canada to host events big and small.
But it’s losing business during the coronavirus pandemic and postponing major events. Over 30 events have been moved out of March and April, and organized are hopeful those can be re-booked down the road. “Standing outside the building today it is publicly closed, so we are not allowing anyone in the building.
Most everybody is working from home,” said Kristy Rempel, manager of the Saskatoon Prairieland Corp. The biggest event that uses the entire park every year is The Ex and organizers are hoping it is able to keep its scheduled date later this year.
