The hosts for the 2027 Memorial Cup will be decided by the end of next week, according to TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger.

Dreger notes that the finalists - the OHL’s Kitchener Rangers and Guelph Storm - play each other twice over the next week.

Kitchener last hosted the annual tournament in 2008, losing the final to the Spokane Chiefs. It also marked their most recent appearance in the Memorial Cup.

Guelph hosted in 2002 and last played in 2019.

The 2026 Memorial Cup will take place in Kelowna, home of the WHL’s Rockets, from May 22-31.
