Calgary Stampeders schedule 2026

1 game

The CFL regular season is 18 games over roughly 21 weeks: nine home dates at McMahon Stadium and nine on the road. The Stamps play three games each against their four West Division rivals — BC, Saskatchewan, Winnipeg, Edmonton — totalling 12 divisional contests, with the remaining six against East Division opponents in a rotating crossover format. Each club gets two bye weeks scattered through the summer schedule, with Labour Day Classic weekend featuring back-to-back Stamps-Elks games (Edmonton hosting the Sunday game, Calgary hosting the Monday game) every September. Pre-season opens in late May with two exhibition matchups. The Western Semi-Final runs the first weekend of November between the second and third West seeds, with the winner moving on to the Western Final at the top seed's stadium. The Grey Cup, the CFL's championship game, rotates between host cities and is played in late November. Use the schedule strip above to filter by month, opponent, or home/away; each row links through to the matchup page with tickets, projected starters, and broadcast info.

About the Calgary Stampeders

The Calgary Stampeders are Alberta's CFL standard-bearer in the South, playing their home games at McMahon Stadium just north of the University of Calgary campus since the venue opened in 1960. Founded in 1945 from the merger of the Calgary Bronks and Calgary Tornadoes, the Stamps have won eight Grey Cup championships — 1948, 1971, 1992, 1998, 2001, 2008, 2014, and 2018 — and remain one of only two CFL clubs to post a 15-win regular season in the modern era. The current bench boss leads a roster known across the league for its disciplined defence, opportunistic special teams, and a quarterback room that has produced Most Outstanding Player nominees in nearly every recent season. A Stampeders home Friday night under the Foothills sky pulls 30,000-plus fans through the McMahon turnstiles, with the famous Outrider horseback team galloping the sideline after every touchdown and the Stamps' century-old white-hat tradition tying every Calgary home game to Stampede culture. This page is the Calgary landing spot for fans figuring out whether the Stamps play tonight, what time kickoff is, who they're hosting, and how to get to McMahon Stadium — kept current throughout the CFL season.

vs Edmonton Elks

Calgary Stampeders vs Edmonton Elks — the Labour Day Classic — is the Battle of Alberta in football form and one of the oldest continuous rivalries in Canadian sport. The two clubs play the Labour Day Sunday game at Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton and the Labour Day Monday holiday matinee at McMahon Stadium in Calgary, with a fan migration along the QE2 between cities that fills hotels in both downtowns. The series runs back to the late 1940s and has produced more Western Final pairings than any other Alberta matchup. Watch this one for short fields and physical play — both clubs traditionally build around defence and special teams, and the Labour Day Monday game has produced multiple last-minute finishes over the past decade. White hats, green-and-gold takeover sections, and a packed McMahon north end make it the marquee Stamps home date.

vs Saskatchewan Roughriders

Calgary Stampeders vs Saskatchewan Roughriders is a West Division series where Rider Nation's travelling section turns McMahon Stadium into something close to a road environment for the home club. The two franchises have met in multiple Western Finals over the past two decades, including a 2008 Stamps win that launched the Henry Burris title run and a 2017 Saskatchewan upset of the top-seeded Stamps in Calgary. Expect a heavy 200-level green-and-white section, a Grey Cup–level visiting crowd noise level on third downs, and Stamps fans wearing red louder than usual to compete. The Saskatchewan game in late September or early October has decided home-field for the Western Final in more than one recent season.

vs BC Lions

Calgary Stampeders vs BC Lions is a West Division series with a long shared Grey Cup history — the Stamps' 1992, 1998, 2001, 2008, 2014, and 2018 titles all came in eras where the Lions were either contending or rebuilding toward contention. Lions trips to McMahon Stadium for late-season games have decided playoff seeding in several recent seasons, and the open-air Calgary conditions flip the equation for the dome-based Lions. Watch this one for quarterback play and special teams — both clubs have built around offensive efficiency and field-position football, and a missed field goal or muffed punt has decided multiple Stamps-Lions results in the past five years. Friday-night McMahon tilts against BC are circled on every Calgary season-seat holder's calendar.

vs Winnipeg Blue Bombers

Calgary Stampeders vs Winnipeg Blue Bombers is one of the most consequential West Division matchups of the modern era — the 2019 Western Final at McMahon Stadium ended the Stamps' run as the West's top club and launched the Bombers' Grey Cup three-peat era. Both franchises have built around physical defensive fronts and run-first offences in recent seasons, which makes Stamps-Bombers tilts grinding, low-scoring affairs that come down to red-zone efficiency and turnover margin. Princess Auto Stadium in Winnipeg is one of the toughest road environments in the league; McMahon flips the venue advantage to Calgary. Watch this one for trench play, third-down conversion rates, and a special-teams unit battle that often decides the final score.

Where to sit at McMahon Stadium

McMahon Stadium has a straightforward bowl layout that gives fans clear sightlines from almost every seat, but each level offers a different matchday experience. The lower bowl puts you close to the action and is the most popular choice for fans who want to feel the speed of the CFL game and hear the crunch of Stampeders defenders making tackles along the sideline. Seats between the 35-yard lines on the west side tend to be the most sought after because they keep you out of the harshest afternoon sun and give you a balanced view of both end zones. Club and premium seating sits in the middle tier and adds upgraded amenities, indoor access for chilly nights, and more comfortable chairs, which is a meaningful tradeoff in Calgary autumn weather. The upper deck rewards planners who want a tactical view of the whole field, which is useful for following the wider CFL formations and longer passing lanes that define the league. End zone seats are typically the most budget-friendly and place you near the action when the Stampeders push toward the goal line. If you are bringing kids or first-time CFL fans, the lower bowl corners often hit the sweet spot between price, atmosphere, and proximity. Season ticket holders cluster in the prime midfield sections, so single-game buyers should browse early in the week for the best inventory across all levels.
