2024 Brier Curling Tournament Preview, Event and TV Schdule


The 2024 Montana's Brier, Canada's national men's curling championship, will be held from March 1 to 10 at the Brandt Centre in Regina, Saskatchewan. The winning team will represent Canada at the 2024 World Men's Curling Championship at the KSS Sports Complex in Schaffhausen, Switzerland.

This will be the first Brier under the sponsorship of Montana's BBQ & Bar, following the departure of Tim Hortons as a sponsor.

Teams

A total of eighteen teams will qualify for the 2024 Brier. The fourteen Canadian curling member associations will hold playdowns to determine who would represent their province or territory. Team Canada is represented by Team Brad Gushue, who won their second consecutive Brier championship at the 2023 Tim Hortons Brier.


In a change in the qualification format, the Brendan Bottcher and Matt Dunstone rinks automatically pre-qualified for the 2024 Brier field based on their 2022-23 Canadian Team Ranking Standings, which meant they bypassed the provincial qualifiers. A fourth qualifying team, Kevin Koe, joined the field as the top non-qualified team on the 2023–24 CTRS standings following provincial and territorial playdowns.
