On championship Sunday, The Beer Store will be onsite in Hamilton hosting pre-game activation spaces to engage the league’s passionate fanbase and add more fun and entertainment to their day before kickoff.
Following an exciting search for the CFL’s biggest fans, The Beer Store will also welcome two guests to Hamilton for an unforgettable VIP trip, including a once-in-a-lifetime pre-game sideline experience to soak in the sights and sounds of the 110th Grey Cup.
“We’re thrilled to partner with The Beer Store to get Ontarians excited for our championship,” said Tyler Mazereeuw, Chief Commercial Officer of the CFL. “Every day, Ontarians turn to The Beer Store for their beer and beverage needs, but beyond that exceptional service, they’re about creating and supporting a community. From brewers to consumers, and of course, to CFL fans, The Beer Store brings people together – and that’s something we will always share.”
The 110th Grey Cup will be played at Tim Hortons Field on Sunday, November 19, with kickoff slated for 6 p.m. ET. The sold-out championship contest, featuring Green Day in the Twisted Tea Grey Cup Halftime Show, will be available live across the nation on TSN and RDS – Canada’s home of the CFL, online through CFL+ for all international viewers, as well as on SiriusXM’s Canada Talks (ch. 167).
