The Grand Slam of Curling will be making a stop in Grande Prairie from October 18-23 at the Coca-Cola Centre.

What is being dubbed as the Hearing Life Tour Challenge will bring some of the best curlers in the world to the Swan City.

Originally, a Grand Slam of Curling event was supposed to be held in Grande Prairie back in 2020 and 2021, however, COVID-19 restrictions caused organizers to cancel the events for the year.

Grande Prairie is no stranger to hosting large curling events. The city hosted the Alberta curling provincials this past January and also hosted the Scotties Tournament of Hearts in 2016.
