Happy New Year from the Corporate Archives

As the new year approaches, we are celebrating by sharing photographs from the New Years Eve Dance hosted at the Winnipeg main branch in 1949. The photographs, carefully preserved in an album, show bank employees ringing in the new year surrounded by their colleagues, friends, and families. At the strike of midnight, attendees gathered in the center of the main banking hall for a balloon drop.

The Corporate Archives would like to thank readers for visiting the BMO – Our Heritage site this year and extend our best wishes for 2025.
