Arrangements for the 2014 event are well under way.
 
The event will formally commence on Sunday 30th March  2014 with the Opening Ceremony at 12 noon.

Following the decision reached at the Annual Meeting of the ICRF, in 2014, there will be eleven teams competing for the Championship Trophy. Taking part will be four teams from Canada, three from the USA, three from Scotland and one from England.
As a result of this decision we require two extra sessions to complete the round robin section of the Championship competition. Having considered all the alternatives we have decided that those teams competing for the Championship Trophy should play their first extra games at 4pm on Saturday 29th March and the second at 9am on Sunday 30th March. This does mean that the Championship teams will play two games before the official opening ceremony.

Ten teams will compete in the Friendship Competition.
Full details of the proposed programme can be found under schedule of activities.

Accommodation has been provisionally booked with The Copthorne and Double Tree Hilton hotels in Aberdeen. We have negotiated a very competitive rate. The hotels are ideally situated close to a number of well known restaurants and within walking distance of the City Centre. Details of the hotel can be found on our website under accommodation.
We have also made provisional bookings for The Opening Banquet, The Rotary night and the Final Banquet and again we have selected venues that are within walking distance of the hotels. We are aware that the sun does not always shine in Aberdeen and transport to and from these venues will be available. See functions for further details.

Transport to and from the rink will also be available.
A full companion’s and non-curler programme will be organised.
