Full event passes are now available for the Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling, Canadian Open, which takes place Jan. 3 to 8, 2017 at the North Battleford Civic Centre.
The full event passes are for all 19 draws and are available for an early bird price of $233.57, which includes all taxes and ticketing fees.
"This is an opportunity to see an international curling field including 16 of the best men’s teams in the world and 16 of the best women’s teams in the world, all at one event here in the Battlefords,” said Twin Rivers Curling Club Host Committee co-chair Wayne Cubbon.
“This should be the best curling field ever assembled in this part of the country.”
Owned and operated by Sportsnet, the Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling is an annual series comprised of seven curling tournaments, inviting the world’s best curlers to compete in Canada. The Canadian Open features a triple knockout format.
Past Canadian Open events featured teams such as current Canadian and World Champion Kevin Koe, Jennifer Jones, Steve Laycock and Eve Muirhead, winner of the Players’ Championship.
“An event of this calibre should sell out,” said Twin Rivers Curling Club Host Committee co-chair Russ Brown.
“Our ticketing system will allow a purchaser to select specific seats on a first come, first served basis, so the best seat selection will be available to those who buy early.”
Tickets are available through the Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling website (www.thegrandslamofcurling.com/tickets) or by calling the Battlefords North Stars box office at 306-445-7827.
