Acadia University will host the Canadian Curling Olympic Pre-Trials: Men & Women from October 21 to 26, 2025. This event, featuring 80 athletes competing over six days, will mark the first major curling event hosted in Acadia’s Andrew H. McCain Arena.

This event is part of Curling Canada’s Olympic event series, where the Pre-Trials Mixed Doubles will be hosted in Liverpool at the Emera Centre, and the Olympic Trials will take place in Halifax at the Scotiabank Centre.

The event provides our community with the opportunity to actively participate as fans, volunteers, or staff. Additionally, it offers the entire Valley region the chance to witness the dedication and hard work of these athletes firsthand. Over 100 volunteers will be involved, with local Curling Clubs playing a significant role.

In partnership with the Town of Wolfville, Curling Nova Scotia, and the Valley’s engaged and passionate curling community we look forward to showcasing the Acadia campus, highlighting our local businesses, and making infrastructure improvements to continue hosting high-caliber events.
