From January 23 to February 1, the 45th annual Scotties Tournament of Hearts makes its debut in the Greater Toronto Area at the Paramount Fine Foods Centre in Mississauga. The event brings together eighteen of Canada's top women’s curling teams as they compete for the national title and the opportunity to represent Canada at the 2026 BKT World Women’s Curling Championship. It’s a rare chance to experience one of Canada’s most iconic tournaments so close to home.

The social side of curling is just as important as the action on the ice. Come out and experience “The Patch” – the tournament’s legendary social hub. It’s the place to eat, drink, hang out, meet the athletes, and catch the games on the big screen. Plus, enjoy nightly entertainment. One of Canada’s most celebrated rock bands, The Trews, are headlining opening night Friday, January 23 at 10:30 p.m. The Patch is open to the general public (no tickets required) and is 19+ after 8:00 p.m. daily.

Opening weekend offers some extra fun for families with curling-themed games and activities including Search & Find, Let’s Play Curling! on Nintendo Switch, Curling Sudoku, in-seat bingo-style game cards, FloorCurl and more throughout the concourse.

The Scotties is more accessible than you think: Single-draw tickets start as low as $21 for adults and $10 for youth/students. Enjoy free parking at the Paramount Fine Foods Centre.
