Record Store Day

Posted by Rob on April 14th, 2011

This Saturday April 16th is Record Store Day. Founded in 2007, Record Store Day offers a chance to patronize and celebrate our local music retailers. Like CKUW, your community record store is passionate about music and artists, new and old.

We’re fortunate in Winnipeg to have several amazing stores full of great music and exceptionally knowledgeable staff. If you haven’t been to a record store for a while this is a great chance to have some fun exploring the shops around the city. Many stores will be having live performances and special sale offers. Local participating stores include:

  • Winnipeg Folk Festival Music Store*
  • Music Trader*
  • Planet of Sound*
  • Argy’s Collectables*
  • Into The Music*
  • War On Music *
  • Red River Book Store
  • McNally Robinson
