Championship curling is coming to the Granite Curling Club in Winnipeg in 2025.
Curling Canada announced Thursday that the 110-year-old facility will host the 2025 Canadian Curling Club Championships.
“The Canadian Curling Club Championships give opportunities to grassroots curlers across Canada to enjoy a national championship experience, and they’ll have a truly special setting in 2025 at the Mother Club in Winnipeg,” said Nolan Thiessen, the CEO of Curling Canada, in a news release.
“This city lives and breathes the game, and I know Winnipeggers will give curlers from across Canada a warm and enthusiastic welcome,” said Mayor Scott Gillingham in a news release.
This is the second time Winnipeg will be the host city for the championships; the previous event was in 2023 at the Assiniboine Memorial Club.
Craig Baker, the executive director of CurlManitoba, said there is excitement to bring the championship event to the Granite Curling Club.
“There is a dedicated group of volunteers who will be working tirelessly to make the event memorable for curlers and fans alike at our most historic club,” he said in a news release.
Manitoba has seen a lot of success on the women’s side of the event with four titles.
However, the men’s side is still in search of the first title for the province.
The 2025 event will run from Nov. 18 to 23.
