Canada Games 2027 Overview


The Canada Games Council has named Québec as the official Host city of the 2027 Canada Winter Games, marking a return to the birthplace of the Canada Games 60 years after the inaugural event held in 1967. From February 27 – March 14, the province of Quebec will host the Canada Games for a fourth time, after previously hosting the 2013 Canada Summer Games in Sherbrooke, the 1983 Canada Winter Games in Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean, and the first-ever Canada Games in Québec in 1967.

The 2027 Canada Games is sure to be a source of adrenaline and pride for our young athletes as they strive to exceed themselves, the Games will foster friendships that transcend provincial and territorial boundaries.
