CARIBBEAN TO HOST 2026 GT20 CANADA TOURNAMENT

TORONTO, CANADA / BRIDGETOWN, BARBADOS - NCL GT20 Canada, Canada’s professional T20 franchise tournament, will stage its 2026 edition in the Caribbean during the October-November window, creating a unique bridge between Canadian and West Indies cricket. Being held in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, the move to the Caribbean is specific to the 2026 tournament, with NCL GT20 Canada scheduled to return to Canada for its 2027 edition. Rather than representing a relocation of the Canadian tournament, this year’s Caribbean staging is designed to deepen cricketing, developmental and commercial ties between Canada and the West Indies. Working collaboratively with Cricket Canada and

Cricket West Indies (CWI), the 2026 tournament will bring together Canadian, Caribbean and international talent on one platform. It provides an opportunity to strengthen player pathways between Canada and the Caribbean while building

relationships that can continue when the tournament returns to Canada next year.
