With the full-event pass you’ll never miss a minute of action from the opening draw to the last rock of the finals. Purchase your full-event pass today for the early bird deal ($170) by calling 1-866-775-9422 or visiting essarcentre.ca.
The Essar Centre hosted the National in November 2014 with Winnipeg’s Team Mike McEwen capturing the title by defeating hometown heroes Team Brad Jacobs in the thrilling final.
The National has doubled in size since then with the addition of a women’s division to the event this past season in Oshawa, Ont. Ottawa’s Team Rachel Homan edged Team Tracy Fleury of Sudbury, Ont., for the inaugural National women’s title and Team Brad Gushue of St. John’s, N.L., topped Winnipeg’s Team Reid Carruthers for the men’s championship.
Weekend passes and single draw tickets will be available at a future date.
Tickets are also available for the Masters, Tour Challenge, and Canadian Open. Visit thegrandslamofcurling.com/tickets for more information.
