The 2027 Scotties Tournament of Hearts (STOH27) is set for February 12–21, 2027, at the Eastlink Centre in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. The 46th edition of Canada’s premier women’s curling championship will feature 18 teams competing for the national title and a place at the 2027 World Women’s Curling Championship.
The 2027 Scotties will be particularly significant because it is the first Scotties of the new Olympic cycle. Curling Canada has already confirmed three entries: reigning champion Team Kerri Einarson, plus pre-qualified Team Rachel Homan and Team Taylor Reese-Hansen. The remaining field will be completed through one additional Canadian Team Ranking System (CTRS) qualification and 14 provincial, territorial and Northern Ontario championship entries.
The opening draw is scheduled for Friday, February 12 at 7:30 p.m. local time in Charlottetown, with the championship final scheduled for Sunday, February 21 at 7:00 p.m. Curling Canada says the published schedule remains subject to change.

Team Canada — Kerri Einarson
Skip: Kerri Einarson
Home: Gimli, Manitoba
Status: Defending Scotties champion / Team Canada
Kerri Einarson will return as Team Canada after winning the 2026 Scotties Tournament of Hearts. Einarson defeated Manitoba’s Team Kaitlyn Lawes 4-3 in an extra end in the 2026 championship final in Mississauga.
The 2026-27 Team Einarson lineup includes Kerri Einarson, Shannon Birchard, Karlee Burgess and Jocelyn Peterman, according to current team listings following the 2026 offseason changes.
Team Rachel Homan — Ontario
Skip: Rachel Homan
Home: Ottawa, Ontario
Status: Pre-qualified
Rachel Homan’s Ottawa-based rink earned a 2027 Scotties berth through its 2025-26 CTRS position and the required roster-continuity rules. Team Homan was also Canada’s women’s representative at the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympics and won bronze.
The current 2026-27 lineup is Rachel Homan, Tracy Fleury, Emma Miskew and Sarah Wilkes.
Team Taylor Reese-Hansen — British Columbia
Skip: Taylor Reese-Hansen
Home: Victoria, British Columbia

Team Taylor Reese-Hansen secured its place in the 2027 Scotties through the 2025-26 CTRS qualification process.

*The 2027 field structure reserves 14 Member Association championship entries. Ontario and British Columbia are shown above as qualification pathways; their eventual provincial entries must be distinguished from the separately pre-qualified Homan and Reese-Hansen teams.
Curling Canada’s published framework confirms 18 teams: Team Canada, three pre-qualified teams and 14 Member Association champions.
The fourth pre-qualified position will go to the highest-ranked team on the 2026-27 CTRS that does not qualify through its provincial or territorial playdown, because one of the previous-season CTRS teams did not meet the required three-of-four player continuity rule. Curling Canada said this spot will be confirmed after the provincial and territorial championships.

2027 Scotties Playoff Schedule
After the 18 round-robin draws, the tournament moves into the Page playoff system.
Curling Canada’s format calls for two nine-team pools, with every team playing eight round-robin games. The top three teams from each pool advance to the Page qualification games, producing the four teams that advance through the Page playoff system.

Saturday, February 20

How Does the 2027 Scotties Tournament of Hearts Format Work?
The 2027 Scotties will feature 18 teams divided into two pools of nine.
Every team will play eight round-robin games within its pool.
At the end of the round robin, the top three teams from each pool advance to the Page qualifying stage.
The Page playoff system then determines the four teams that move into the final championship playoff bracket.
This means teams need to perform consistently during the opening stage rather than relying on a single knockout game to reach championship weekend.
How to Watch the 2027 Scotties Tournament of Hearts
TV Broadcast
TSN and RDS2 are the official broadcast partners associated with Curling Canada’s Season of Champions, and Curling Canada has confirmed that they will televise the action from Charlottetown.
The exact game-by-game television assignment for 2027 has not yet been finalized.
That distinction matters because Curling Canada’s current ticket information indicates that the detailed television and draw schedule is being finalized later in 2026.
Live Stream
For Canadian viewers, TSN’s digital platforms have been used for live Scotties coverage, including TSN.ca and the TSN app. For example, TSN’s recent Scotties coverage has offered live games through TSN.ca and the TSN App.
For the 2027 event, viewers should check the final TSN broadcast schedule before the tournament because individual online streams, channel assignments and regional access may vary.

2027 Scotties Live Scores and Results
The tournament has not started yet, so there are no 2027 Scotties game results or championship standings as of September 30, 2026.
Curling Canada’s official 2027 Scotties website currently lists the live scores section as coming soon.
Once competition begins, this section should be updated with:
- Draw-by-draw scores
- Team records
- Pool standings
- Page playoff results
- Semifinal result
- Championship final result
- Final standings
- 2027 Scotties champion
Current defending champion
The defending national champion entering the 2027 tournament is Team Kerri Einarson, which won the 2026 Scotties final 4-3 against Manitoba’s Team Kaitlyn Lawes in an extra end.
What Is at Stake at the 2027 Scotties?
The winning team will become the 2027 Canadian women’s curling champion and will earn the right to represent Canada at the 2027 World Women’s Curling Championship.
Curling Canada says the host city and dates for the 2027 World Women’s Championship had not yet been announced when the Scotties host was confirmed.
The 2027 Scotties champion will also return as Team Canada for the 2028 Scotties Tournament of Hearts.
Charlottetown Hosts the Scotties for a Record Fifth Time
The return to Charlottetown is one of the headline stories surrounding the 2027 championship.
Curling Canada selected Charlottetown in June 2025, confirming that the city would become a record five-time Scotties host. Previously, Charlottetown, Regina and Calgary had each hosted the tournament four times.
Charlottetown’s previous Scotties championships were held in 1973, 1984, 1999 and 2011.
The 2027 tournament will therefore bring the Canadian women’s championship back to Prince Edward Island for the first time since 2011.

Single-draw tickets were scheduled to go on sale after television and draw schedules were finalized.
2027 Scotties Tournament of Hearts: Why This Edition Matters
The 2027 Scotties is the first edition following the 2026 Winter Olympics and marks the beginning of a new Olympic cycle.
That makes roster changes and new team combinations particularly important. Curling Canada itself described the event as the first Scotties of the next Olympic quadrennial, while its 2026-27 National Team Program contains several established teams entering a new four-year cycle.
Three of the most recognizable names already confirmed for Charlottetown are defending champion Kerri Einarson, five-time Scotties champion Rachel Homan, and British Columbia’s Taylor Reese-Hansen.
However, a significant portion of the field will not be known until later in the 2026-27 season, which means the team picture will continue to change before the official opening draw.
