Calgary Stampeders miss playoffs as Montreal and Edmonton meet in the 113th Grey Cup at McMahon

The 113th Grey Cup is Sunday, November 15, 2026, at McMahon Stadium in Calgary, with the Montreal Alouettes and Edmonton Elks in the final. Calgary is hosting but not playing: the Stampeders finished the 2026 regular season at 9-9 and missed the playoffs.

Kickoff is 6 p.m. ET, 5 p.m. Alberta time. Gates open at 3:00 p.m. MT. The game airs on TSN, CTV, RDS and Crave in Canada and on CFL+ internationally. Tickets are sold through Ticketmaster; the festival's levels 1 through 4 and Corral seating are reported sold out. The free FanDuel Game Day Tailgate runs 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. in the east parking lot.

This is the 12th Grey Cup meeting between Montreal and Edmonton. Edmonton has won 14 Grey Cup titles to Montreal's 8, and holds an 8-3 record in previous Grey Cup meetings between the two clubs. Edmonton also beat Montreal in the 2005 and 1979 Grey Cups, and in 2013 the Elks won in Vancouver with Montreal on the losing end.

Montreal's eight titles came in 1949, 1970, 1974, 1977, 2002, 2009, 2010 and 2023, with back-to-back wins in 2009 and 2010.

For anyone who remembers the last time the final came to this stadium: in 1975, at McMahon in bitterly cold conditions, Edmonton beat Montreal 9-8 with no touchdowns scored, and Montreal missed a late field goal that would have won it.
