Halifax stop replaced by Red Deer event on delayed Rock League schedule

The Curling Group announced an updated schedule for the 2026-27 Rock League on Thursday, with a previously announced stop in Halifax removed from the circuit.

The Halifax event, planned for Jan. 14-17 at Scotiabank Centre, will be replaced by an April 8-11 competition at the Servus Arena in Red Deer, Alta.

The Curling Group also announced that the second edition of the league will culminate with a championship event April 15-18 in Kalamazoo, Mich.

Previously announced events in Moose Jaw, Sask. (Jan. 7-10), Utica, N.Y. (Jan. 28-31), and Ottawa (Feb. 4-7) remain on the schedule, which was initially set to be released Wednesday.

The Curling Group pushes back planned Rock League announcement

The Curling Group, which bought the Grand Slam of Curling series in 2024, also made late changes to the Rock League schedule ahead of its opening season last spring.

Initial plans for a six-week campaign with international stops were changed last fall and the season was eventually downsized into a single weeklong competition in St. Paul, Minn.

Plans changed again after that, with the competition eventually moved to Toronto.
