There’s a potential bid for the Scotties Tournament of Hearts for 2026. A group in Lethbridge has asked city council for assistance in funding to pay to host them before they bid. Brandon Cassidy looks into whether the costs outweigh the benefits.The Lethbridge Curling Club is seeking the city’s support to bid for the 2026 women’s curling championships called The Scotties: Tournament of Hearts.
“We’ll never get a Grey Cup, we’ll never have the Stanley Cup playoffs here, but we can host the biggest Canadian curling championships there are with a worldwide audience. So, it’s a real feather in the cap for Lethbridge,” Mearns said. “Everybody wins, right? Our hotels do see the majority of that win,” explained Erin Crane, the Tourism Lethbridge CEO. “But again, the food and beverage section is right in there along with entertainment like our attractions and transportation. There are so many segments.”
