The Winnipeg Sea Bears announced they will be opening the upper bowl at Canada Life Centre for the 2025 season and home opener on May 16.
The basketball club will be holding a ceremony before the game to honour and celebrate the Sea Bears’ late captain, Chad Posthumus, who passed in November following complications arising from brain surgery.
Fans in attendance will receive a commemorative gift from the club.
The Sea Bears have also announced Juno award-winning artist Maestro Fresh Wes as the halftime entertainment for the home opener. He is the first Black Canadian artist to have a single or album reach gold and platinum status in Canada, and the first to be inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Canada Life Centre will also play host to the Canadian Elite Basketball League championship weekend in August, with the Sea Bears having an automatic bye into the tournament as the host team.
