Winnipeg Sea Bears Announce South Pole Pass, a New Season Ticket Member Perk, Community Fundraiser, and a Packed Schedule of July Home Games

July 8, 2026

WINNIPEG, MB — July 8, 2026 — The Winnipeg Sea Bears are bringing the heat this summer with a brand-new fan experience upgrade, a community fundraising campaign, a new season ticket member concession perk and six remaining home games packed with themed nights, special performances, and one-of-a-kind moments. Canada Life Centre is the place to be this July.

New This Season: The South Pole Pass

The Sea Bears are introducing the South Pole Pass, giving fans an affordable way to experience one of the most electric sections in the building. For just $25, fans get standing room access in the South Pole plus their first drink included.


South Pole Passes are available here now. The South Pole also features the Tundra Buggy drink bar, Sea Bears and Zueike merch, post-game autographs, and court access for 30 minutes after every game.


New Season Ticket Member Perk: 20% Off Select Concessions

Season ticket members now get 20% off popcorn, soda, draft beer, and pizza at all Winnipeg Sea Bears home games. The discount applies automatically at concession stands when you show your season ticket member badge in the Sea Bears app, just another reason to be a member all season long.


Every 3-Pointer Counts — Sea Bears Foundation Fundraiser

The Sea Bears are tipping off a new community fundraising campaign this July: Every 3-Pointer Counts. The initiative invites fans to pledge a set amount for every three-pointer the Sea Bears make at home this month, with all proceeds supporting the Winnipeg Sea Bears Foundation's work in youth basketball and community impact across Manitoba.

It's simple: pick a pledge amount ($1, $3, or $5 per three-pointer), choose which of the six July home games to support, and watch your contribution grow with every 3-pointer made. Fans can pledge for individual games or all six. To put it in perspective, the Sea Bears hit 38 three-pointers over four home games in June 2026 — a $1 pledge over that stretch would have meant a $38 donation.


Pledges can be made anytime during July and are tallied after the final home game on July 31. Payment is accepted by credit card or Interac e-transfer. Donors can also set a cap to keep their total within a preferred range. Donations of $50 or more receive a charitable tax receipt from the Winnipeg Sea Bears Foundation.
