It's official: The 114th Gray Cup will be held in Saskatchewan on November 7, 2027.

“Race Nation is legendary and Saskatchewan's winning bid was an unmistakable reflection of this incredible fan base, filled with passion, celebration, a strong sense of community and, of course, a deep love for Canadian football,” CFL Commissioner Stuart Johnston said in a statement.

“We look forward to seeing the entire province come together and open their arms to fans from coast to coast while showcasing green and white prairie pride!”

Regina last hosted the Gray Cup in 2022, when the Toronto Argonauts defeated the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 24-23 at Mosaic Stadium.

Saskatchewan has hosted the Gray Cup three times before: in 1995, 2003 and 2013. The Baltimore Stallions defeated the Calgary Stampeders in 1995, the Edmonton football team defeated the Montreal Alouettes in 2003, and the Saskatchewan Roughriders defeated the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 2013.

“The Gray Cups in Saskatchewan are incredibly special. It's more than a game, it's a week-long gathering that brings the entire CFL community together. Mosaic Stadium was built to host events of this magnitude, and it's a tremendous honor to welcome the league back here in 2027,” said President and CEO Craig Reynolds.

“The energy and hospitality of Rider Nation is unmatched and we can't wait to celebrate with them once again. We extend our deepest gratitude to the Province of Saskatchewan, the City of Regina and our many partners whose support made this possible.”

This year's Gray Cup will be held at Princess Auto Stadium in Winnipeg, and next year's Gray Cup will be held at McMahon Stadium in Calgary.
