Who we are
Queen City Distillers, owned by Shaun Semple, is a new development in the heart of Regina set to reimagine food, beverage and entertainment options for residents of the Queen City. Queen City Distillers will be a multi-venue entertainment complex built around a pre-existing state of the art distilling operation where local craftspeople prioritize local flavours and bold entertainment.
At Queen City Distillers, we aim to redefine hospitality by offering:
Authentic Craftsmanship — an urban distillery producing premium spirits that reflect the pride, character and personality of our home town.
Elevated Dining & Social Spaces — from a premium sports bar to a second-story one-of-a-kind restaurant, to a premium wine and spirits bar, every plate, every drink, and every space is curated for memorable moments.
Unique Tastings — the go-to local space for tasting refined and exotic spirits and wines from across Saskatchewan and around the world.
Dynamic Live Entertainment — With three stages to boast, Queen City Distillers will be the gathering space for musicians near and far. At the centre of it all is a cutting-edge music venue designed to amplify the voices of local talent and attract touring artists, enriching Regina’s cultural landscape.
Community at Our Core — a place where stories are shared, connections are forged, and Regina’s community spirit thrives in every gathering, celebration, and collaboration.
We believe that Queen City Distillers will not only set a new benchmark for entertainment and hospitality in Saskatchewan but also become a proud symbol of Regina’s growth, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit.
Our vision is to create a legacy destination — a place where heritage meets innovation, and where every experience tells a story worth remembering.
Our Distillery
With expansion planned, we will be one of the largest brewing and distilling operations in Saskatchewan. With a 20,000 sq/ft production floor, our team will always be outfitted with the best-in-class equipment to make best-in-class beverages, including a new $12M investment in a state-of-the-art brewing line.
Our Entertainment Complex
(In-Development)
Slated to open in December 2026, Queen City Distillers has a bold vision for what’s possible in our new entertainment complex. Our vision is to create a food, beverage and entertainment destination where Regina’s greatest chefs, mixologists, distillers and artists can showcase their craft. Today, the plan is for the complex to include:
A one-of-a-kind, 250-person Sports Bar perfect for enjoying before and after Saskatchewan Roughrider and Regina Pats games, or for catching broadcasts of NHL, NFL, NBA and other national leagues amongst friends with top-tier food and drink menus.
A fast-paced, but elevated 264-person Restaurant where you get your meal with a dash of local ingredients and fresh flavours that stay true to the culture of Regina and our ambitious yet grounded residents.
An exclusive, 146-person speakeasy-style lounge perfect for a nightcap after the show or to see a performer on a small stage while enjoying specialty cocktails
A unique, experience-forward 46-person Tasting Room where storytellers and distilling experts bring spirits, wine and other beverages to life.
A two-story, 1,490-person Live Music Club where local artists have the opportunity showcase their talents and touring artists have a reason to stop in the Queen City on the prairie leg of their tours across Canada.
