The Sleeman Centre previously hosted the National in January 2010. Brad Gushue captured his first career Grand Slam title as his crew from St. John’s, N.L., defeated Randy Ferbey’s Edmonton-based club in the final. A lot has changed in the series since then as all events in the series now feature men’s and women’s divisions with equal prize money!
Guelph isn’t just the backdrop for this epic curling showdown—it’s the perfect destination for a winter getaway. In between games, enjoy Guelph’s cozy eateries and lively craft breweries and distilleries, explore Guelph’s vibrant shops in our limestone downtown, take a serene nature walk at The University of Guelph Arboretum, and skate at the Market Square in front of Guelph City Hall – all a short journey from the centrally-located Sleeman Centre! See you in January!
