Western Regional, Eastern Regional and National Championship Bid Finalists Announced for the 2018/19 and 2019/20 Seasons

Following our previous bid finalist announcement, and the extension given to competitive bidders, Quidditch Canada is excited to announce the finalists for the 2019/20 Eastern Regional Championship and the 2019/20 National Championship, and the host city for the 2018/19 Western Regional Championship.

Quidditch Canada would like to take this opportunity to thank our membership for their patience regarding this announcement. The extended deadline allowed us and our partners to ensure that these bids could meet the event standards our community has come to expect.  We would like to once again extend our gratitude to all the cities across Canada who presented bids for this bidding cycle; their hard work and dedication to our sport are what make high quality Canadian quidditch events possible.

Site visits are in the process of being scheduled and details of each host facility will be explored in great detail. The remaining 2018/19 host cities will be announced no later than July 20, and the 2019/20 Eastern and National host cities will be announced no later than August 10.

Please note that Quidditch Canada received no satisfactory bids for the 2019/20 Western Regional Championship and will be leaving that bid competition open until a suitable host is found.
