Coverage

Where does the 204 area code apply?

The 204 area code covers the entire province of Manitoba — from Winnipeg to Brandon, Portage la Prairie, Steinbach, Winkler, Selkirk, Thompson and Dauphin. It is one of the 86 original area codes from the 1947 North American Numbering Plan, and one of only nine assigned to Canada that year.

As Manitoba's number needs grew, overlay codes 431 and later 584 were added on the same territory. A 204 number on Bloom AI cloud telephony stays local for your Manitoba customers, wherever your team works from.
