Ice Rink Canary Wharf’s Curling Challenge is back for the first time since 2019, with companies, colleagues and friends from across the capital invited to sign up and battle it out on the ice to be named sliding champion.  The tournament is supported by The English Curling Association and will run from Wednesday 7 February to Thursday 9 February 2023. For the first time, anyone can take part, with dedicated public matches in addition to exclusive Canary Wharf tenant sessions. Up to 64 teams of three will battle it out over the three-day competition, with only eight of those teams progressing to the finals. 

Each session lasts 55 minutes including 10 minutes for practice. Game slots will take place throughout the day from 10am – 2pm with curling equipment and shoe grips provided to all registered teams on the day of play. The final will take place on Thursday 9 February 12noon – 2pm.
