It was a time to celebrate at the 2018 Doors Open Winnipeg 8th Annual People's Choice Awards and Volunteer Reception at the historic Millennium Centre. Heritage Winnipeg hosted the event, handing out awards and thanking the dedicated volunteers in attendance who helped to make Doors Open Winnipeg a successful event.

The People's Choice Awards represent five categories, Best Restoration, Best Guided Tour or Programming, Best Architecture, Best Experience and the Hidden Gem. Online voting was open to the public, showcasing 93 amazing buildings, tours and events. Votes poured in the week following Doors Open Winnipeg, making for a close race in several of the categories. In the end, the votes were tallied and the winners were rewarded for their efforts with framed original drawings of their buildings by local artist Robert Sweeney.
