Grey Cup 2026 Is Sunday, Nov. 15 in Calgary: Start Time by Time Zone and CFL Playoff Dates

Checked Oct. 26, 2026. The broadcast schedule of The Sports Network (TSN) says it is subject to change, and the playoff teams were still to be determined in the version we read.

The 113th Grey Cup is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 15, 2026, at McMahon Stadium in Calgary, with a 6 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) start, according to the Canadian Football League (CFL). The league published the playoff dates in its Dec. 9, 2025 press release. Below: the time in every Canadian zone, the playoff dates and where the sources disagree.

What is the Grey Cup 2026 date and time?

The CFL’s press release lists three playoff dates. Its times are in ET, and its first two entries each show two games.

Date	Round	Time (CFL)
Saturday, Oct. 31	Division Semi-Finals	3 and 6:30 p.m. ET
Saturday, Nov. 7	Division Finals	3 and 6:30 p.m. ET
Sunday, Nov. 15	113th Grey Cup, McMahon Stadium, Calgary	6 p.m. ET

The Sports Network (TSN) lists the Grey Cup on Nov. 15 at 6 p.m. too. Its listing shows teams as to be determined and carries the note “Schedule subject to change.”

Do the CFL and TSN agree on the semi-final times?

No. For Oct. 31 the CFL release says 3 and 6:30 p.m. ET. TSN’s broadcast schedule, updated Aug. 31, 2026, shows 1 p.m. and 4:30 p.m., with no time zone given. We have not resolved the gap. Check the TSN schedule on game day before you plan around a start time.

What time is the Grey Cup in each time zone?

Clocks fall back on Nov. 1, so on Nov. 15 the 6 p.m. ET start falls on standard time everywhere in this table. The CFL gives only the ET time. Every other row is our conversion.

Time zone	Example place	Grey Cup start, Sun., Nov. 15
Pacific Standard Time	Pacific zone, Canada and the U.S.	3 p.m.
Mountain Standard Time	Calgary	4 p.m.
Central Standard Time	Winnipeg	5 p.m.
Central Standard Time, no clock change	Regina, Saskatchewan	5 p.m.
Eastern Standard Time	Eastern zone, Canada and the U.S.	6 p.m. (CFL time)
Atlantic Standard Time	Atlantic Canada	7 p.m.
Newfoundland Standard Time	Newfoundland	7:30 p.m.
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)	United Kingdom	11 p.m.

Saskatchewan does not change its clocks, so Regina is on Central Standard Time all year and also sees a 5 p.m. start. For the date the change happens, see our daylight saving time guide and the daylight saving time ends Nov. 1, 2026 story.

Who is performing at the Grey Cup halftime show?

TSN reported that country singer Riley Green will headline the halftime show in Calgary. The report cites a CFL announcement on Sept. 24, 2026.

Where can you watch the Grey Cup?

In Canada, the CFL says Bell Media will broadcast the 2026 season across TSN, Réseau des sports (RDS) and its broadcast network (CTV). TSN lists the Grey Cup on TSN1, TSN3, TSN4 and CTV.

In the United States, the CFL says select games air on CBS Sports Network and the rest stream on CFL+. The CFL had not named a U.S. Grey Cup broadcaster in the sources we read, so check the league’s schedule for the Nov. 15 game.

Who won the Grey Cup last year?

As reported by The Canadian Press, the Saskatchewan Roughriders beat the Montreal Alouettes 25-17 in the 112th Grey Cup on Nov. 16, 2025, in Winnipeg.
